SPIDER is a Xovis edge processing unit that enables very large multi-sensor installations — up to 350 sensors in a single logical sensor. It handles all image processing, tracking, and data aggregation, outputting a single unified data stream.
When do you need a SPIDER?
PC-Series | Up to 9 sensors in a multisensor without SPIDER. More than 9 → SPIDER required. |
PF-Series | Up to 15 sensors in a multisensor without SPIDER. More than 15 → SPIDER required. |
Mixed PF + PC | PF and PC sensors can be combined in the same multisensor — SPIDER manages the combined stream. |
Use cases
Shopping malls — tracking visitors across the entire floor plan as a single zone
Airports and transit hubs — continuous tracking through check-in, security, gates
Warehouses and logistics — flow tracking across large operational floor areas
Smart buildings — whole-floor or whole-building occupancy and flow analytics
Key capabilities
Max sensors | Up to 350 sensors in a single multisensor |
Tracking | Combines image and data streams from all connected sensors into seamless cross-zone visitor tracking |
Configuration | Remote access — add counting lines, zones, logic, and push agents via HUB Device Control |
Network | Supports IPv4 and IPv6 |
Security | Highest security standards — data push via HTTPS, SFTP, or MQTTS only |
Data output | Single data push from the SPIDER covering all connected sensors — simplifies integration |
FW 5.9 multisensor improvements
FW 5.9 introduced a new stitching algorithm that improves tracking across sensors in a multisensor and enables flexible sensor placement beyond flat floors. This enables seamless PC + PF integration for door-to-floor journey tracking.
Accessories
The SPIDER Wall Mount Bracket (PA-SPI-WM) provides a quick-install wall mounting solution with a locking mechanism — no specialist tools required. Supplied screws ensure secure wall attachment.
Connecting SPIDER to Vemcount
SPIDER behaves as a single sensor from Vemcount's perspective. Register the SPIDER's MAC address in Settings → Devices. All counting lines and zones configured on the SPIDER are available in Vemcount as data sources for zones, widgets, and analytics.
