What is Trailsense?
Trailsense provides a privacy-friendly visitor flow measurement system for outdoor trails using anonymous WiFi signal detection. It targets municipalities and tourism regions that need accurate usage data without invasive cameras. The system is low-cost, off-grid, and scalable, making it suitable for remote environments. Tested in an alpine pilot, Trailsense converts raw signals into aggregated counts for a dashboard, enabling data-driven decisions on infrastructure, crowding, and environmental impact.
