Richnerstutz Ltd: Covid19 solution for retailers - Smart counting system helps customers to keep their distance |
|
Villmergen, Switzerland, 7 May, 2020 (APA/OTS) - "Extraordinary situations require extraordinary measures." These were the words of the CEO of one of Switzerland's largest event agencies when its turnover completely collapsed on 1 March due to the coronavirus. Richnerstutz Ltd. has developed a solution to halt the spread of the Covid-19 virus with its specially developed CountMe® product. A sophisticated system facilitates access controls for shops and stores. An innovative traffic light system automatically measures and controls customer flows without incurring personnel costs. |
Governments have imposed drastic reductions to the recommended
numbers of customers per floor area to prevent the spread of the
Covid-19 virus. In practice, affected companies are attempting to do
so through controls by door personnel, entry ticket distribution
systems or mobile barriers. The result is usually unsatisfactory and
cost- intensive. An innovative, easy-to-install traffic light system
is now set to implement the mandatory access controls effortlessly
and cost-effectively, and measure customer flows. Above all, this
will help retailers, restaurants and museums, railway stations,
airports and even virus test centres.
Sensor automatically counts customers CountMe® looks like a welcome sign and is similar like a traffic
light in red and green. The pillars stand at the entrance and exit
of a store and a sensor registers the customers as they enter and
leave the store. The system turns red once the defined number of
people in the store has been reached. Otherwise, customers meet a
green light and may enter the store. The system is easy to assemble;
installation and set-up can be done in a few minutes via an app. The
appropriate floor stickers are also available to match the pillars
to maintain the required distance.
Innovative, flexible, creative "When we had the idea, we immediately started developing it
together. We tested the prototype after only a week, as we have the
necessary knowledge and expertise, technology and material within
the company," explains André Richner, CEO of Richnerstutz Ltd. "We
are really happy to be making a significant contribution to tackling
the Covid-19 pandemic.
Retailers in Europe are already measuring customer flows The first CountMe® systems have already been successfully installed
at several hundred retailers across Europe. US and several overseas
markets are already primed for the roll out. The benefits of
CountMe® are obvious: It is the precise solution, efficient and
saves money. Retail has already recognised this.
