How it works
Three steps, then it is just running
1
Step 1: Point us at your feeds
We connect to the recorder you already run. Most tunnels add one camera at the entry for plates; everything else runs on the feeds you have.

Step 2: Calibrate the tunnel
We mark where cars load and where the brush arch sits. That is the whole setup — the events come from the geometry.

Step 3: Watch it on your dashboard
The second a car loads, it shows up on your dashboard. Every pass, gap and stop lands there as it happens, and all of it stays in one place.

What you can finally answer
Know where your tunnel loses cars.
See what the tunnel really runs, where the throughput goes, and how long it stood still.
What is the real cars-per-hour?
Measured against conveyor capacity, by hour and by day.
17 carsshort of capacity, each hour
78 carswashed per hour
78 cars washed17 cars missed
The tunnel ran 78 cars an hour against a capacity of 95.
Where does the throughput go?
Loading gaps, stops, and slow exits, separated.
Loading gaps9 cars
Stops5 cars
Slow exits3 cars
Loading gaps cost the most cars every hour.
How long was the tunnel down?
Every stop, with its length and the cars that queued behind it.

Which plates keep coming back?
Passes tied to plates, so members and regulars both show up.

Good to know
The questions washes ask first
A few things you might want to know before getting started.
01Do I need a new camera at the entry?
Usually one, yes. Plates have to be read cleanly at speed and most existing entry cameras are angled for evidence rather than recognition. Everything else — loading, the tunnel itself, the exit — runs on the feeds you already have.
02How is this different from what my controller reports?
A controller counts what passed through. BayCam measures the conveyor as a whole, so an empty stretch of track counts against you the same way a stopped tunnel does. That is the difference between a throughput number and a capacity number.
03What does it connect to?
Your wash POS, so every pass arrives with its plan or transaction attached. Without that link you get times; with it you get what those times were worth.
04Does it work on an in-bay automatic?
Yes, with different events. There is no conveyor to measure, so an in-bay is timed on the cycle instead — vehicle in, wash starts, wash ends, vehicle out — and the gap that matters becomes the time between one car leaving and the next being positioned.
05Do I have to buy cameras?
BayCam runs on the CCTV you already have. Those cameras were put up for evidence, not recognition, so some may just need re-aiming — we look at your feeds first and tell you plainly which ones. Once they are pointed right, you are good to go.
06How long until it is running?
About a week per site. Once we have access to your feeds and your POS, we collect footage from your bays, train our AI model on your layout, run it on your cameras, and test the results against what actually happened before you rely on a single number. Multi-site rollouts go a site at a time, so each one is trained and tested on its own rather than copied.
