On some days we re-calibrate our data node and the live streaming is replaced with a sample.

This particular demonstration is presently monitoring time and motion data. Each histogram bar captures a time interval (at present an hour, but it could be any length). Within the histogram bar the events are indicated by a horizontal line. The plot therefore provides a "density map" of activity which is stored in a database for later analysis. This technique could of course be applied to industrial machinery monitoring. Another key differential measure is the difference between "passing" and "lingering" movement, for example in a retail outlet. Other "traffic" analysis in its widest sense can also be obtained by careful positioning and calibration of infrared sensors. The addition of web cam technology offers additional pattern recognition parameters for more sophisticated monitoring.
