User friendliness first

SimCrowds has been designed to match our user’s needs. SimCrowds is user friendly. There are no difficult menus or unnecessarily complex options to create a simulation. Our product uses modern interface designs you are familiar with from websites, games and everyday applications. This enables fast and intuitive interaction with the simulation and environment.

Get started in minutes

Download the software, install it on your Windows PC and start simulating crowds. You do not need specialist technical knowledge to run SimCrowds. Learn the software without our help or contact us to get started.

Simulate in your own environment

All our users can import their 3D (FBX) models into SimCrowds to create their own simulation street or building floorplan. 3D models can be imported to create obstacles, such as walls, trees or other obstructions, or walkable areas, such as bridges, ramps and stairs.

The Netherlands at your fingertips

SimCrowds has made life easy for our Dutch users. Our Dutch experts can create any outside environment in SimCrowds in a matter of seconds by selecting an area from the Dutch geo-information database (Kadaster BGT). From Vlieland to Vaals or from Vriezeveen to Vlissingen, you can simulate your own environment in a few clicks.

Realistic crowd behaviour

SimCrowds allows you to easily create entry and exit areas for pedestrians at any place inside your 3D model. You then fill the 3D space with waypoints that serve as focus areas. These areas attract pedestrians and may trigger them to slow down or wait, resulting in the inevitable congestions.

Dynamic trial and error

The 3D objects from the existing library of the self-imported objects can be placed anywhere in the environment to redesign the public space. When this is done during an active simulation, the pedestrians will react dynamically to the changes in the environment, allowing for dynamic trial and error review of crowd management concepts.

Real-time simulation

SimCrowds brings the power of real-time crowd simulation to your desktop. In SimCrowds, you can simulate up to 150.000 pedestrians in real-time while having the ability to make direct influencing changes to their environment. Smaller crowds can be simulated faster than real-time.

Never wait for the result

Having real-time interaction with the pedestrians means you never have to wait for the simulation to calculate. Instead of waiting minutes or hours before the whole simulation has been computed, you instantly can see what the pedestrians are doing and you can make instant changes to the layout.

Analyse social distancing

Interested to analyse how your crowd flow behaves in 1.5-meter social distancing society? In SimCrowds, you can enable our social distancing option to let pedestrians keep a defined distance from each other, enabling you to see possible problems and congestions now more room is needed for the crowds.

Continuous development

Our software already has many features, but there is always more to implement. We extend SimCrowds regularly with new features requested by the community. Steer our software to your own needs. Next to this, we have big plans for crowd simulation in the future. Interested in updates? Let us know!
