Counter Setting Guide
The counter application counts the number of AI-detected objects. The count value can be
utilized by defining various actions.
3.1 Counter working process
By setting up a counter application, ZN-AIBOX-STD/PRO counts objects internally and archives
the counting data to internal storage at regular intervals.
The stored data can be retrieved directly from the edge through the API. Edge storage has
limitations in areas such as storage period, network configuration, and service delivery
performance.
