QR ticket scanning capacity estimator
Estimate theoretical gate throughput from your scanner count and observed scan speed. Use this as a planning starting point, not a performance guarantee.
Calculate scanning capacity
Adjust the scanner count, observed scans per minute per device, and your peak entry window in minutes. Use your actual observed pilot throughput for accuracy.
Use observed pilot throughput, queue design, device readiness, and network conditions for planning. This estimate does not promise scan latency or offline capacity.
Formula
Capacity = Scanners × Scans per device / minute × Peak window (minutes)This is a theoretical maximum. Actual throughput depends on queue design, device readiness, network conditions, offline queue size, and the proportion of invalid/duplicate tickets. Use observed pilot data for event planning.
