WAVIX-AI, the non-intrusive radar designed to count bicycles, pedestrians and motorized modes: now available!

Written by Raphaël Chapalain | May 27, 2026

Local practitioners need data to make decisions: to ensure the safety of a development, prioritize an investment, explain a choice to elected officials and users, or integrate active mobility into a comprehensive traffic management strategy. Yet, in the field, one question keeps coming up: how can we accurately measure coexisting modes of travel while simplifying installation and operation?

The WAVIX-AI, Eco-Counter’s next-generation counter, leverages cost-effective radar and AI technology to provide a simple solution: counting and classifying pedestrians, cyclists, and motorized vehicles without major construction work or personal data concerns.

Why this launch matters (really)

  • To make decisions based on evidence: objectively assess before-and-after changes, establish a baseline, document a need, and demonstrate an impact.
  • To ensure safety and ease of mind: understand speeds, coexistence, peaks, and high-risk areas.
  • To connect active mobility to the “rest of the system ”: to have data that is actionable, integrable, and sustainable over time.

Our promise remains the same: to transform your pedestrian and bicycle flows into informed planning decisions, with reliable indicators and end-to-end support.

1) Count and classify active and motorized modes in the same location, using the same system

The WAVIX-AI simultaneously detects, tracks, and classifies moving objects using machine learning models (speed, trajectory, clustering, shape, and signal strength). This provides a comprehensive understanding of usage on:

  • Dedicated lanes (bike lanes, sidewalks, bus lanes)
  • Shared spaces (pedestrianized zones, mixed-use areas, intersections, areas around public facilities)

Example of multimodal data collection: pedestrian/bike/car/bus.

2) A versatile and non-intrusive traffic counting system

  • No image capture or personal data
  • A non-intrusive approach, tailored to the constraints of local practitioners and public spaces
  • A versatile system that can be installed permanently or temporarily in 20 minutes to collect data for one-off studies or long-term baseline data

3) Actionable data that drives results

Beyond raw counts, the goal is to provide you with useful, insightful, and usable data:

  • Hourly / daily / seasonal trends
  • Precise speeds
  • Volumes by user type
  • Before-and-after comparisons (development, construction, changes to traffic patterns)

 

FAQ

How can the WAVIX-AI help me justify a development project or budget?

By generating reliable metrics (benchmark metrics, before/after comparisons, traffic volumes, speeds) that turn estimates into evidence to convince elected officials, management, and partners.

What does a non-intrusive counting system mean?

Non-intrusive counting systems (such as the WAVIX-AI) are installed with a simple and secure mount on existing infrastructure, without requiring civil engineering or roadwork.

Does this counting system integrate easily without creating a new silo (ITS/Operations)?

The data is structured and ready to feed into existing dashboards and systems, with a quick installation (<20 min) and a sustainable operational model (remote updates, limited maintenance).

Is installing the WAVIX-AI simple?

The WAVIX-AI installs in less than 30 minutes via the Eco-Link Evo companion app. No civil engineering, no heavy construction: the goal is to reduce deployment complexity and accelerate commissioning.

How is the WAVIX-AI pedestrian/bicycle/motor vehicle counter powered?

The WAVIX radar can be powered by solar energy or connected directly to the electrical grid.

In summary

  • The first radar solution designed for the simultaneous counting of active and motorized mobility.
  • Accurate data to inform decision-making, ensure safety, set priorities, and optimize management.
  • A non-intrusive, versatile, and rapidly deployable system, designed for sustainable installation and operation.
