In this article, Hashimoto, Kawaguchi, Matsueda, Morinaka and Yoshiike (1998) focus on the applications of the people counting sensor by explaining the components and how it processes. The people-counting system is equipped with a multi-element infrared sensor which is made of PbTiO3 ceramics to achieve non-contact and non-blocking real-time counters with high accuracy. The sensor digital output and human information sensor uses a pyroelectric array detector to detect the direction of the movement and number of people. The counting sensor with eight-element array detectors is set up on the ceiling in the centre of the door and the sensor arrays are parallel to the movement directions of the occupants. The sensor on the ceiling detects the heat from the floor, and the signal output from the elements is changed by the movement of the people. The occupants are detected by the differences between the measured output and mean output of the floor. The system uses a multi-sensing approach to detect movements and the number of occupants, providing more than 95% accuracy which then can be applied for energy saving, security as well as business purposes.
The article provides useful information for our research project
on the applications of people counting sensor as it is part of our proposed
solution. The people counting sensor is able to detect people without intruding
their privacy as shown by the research in the article as the sensor is
connected to the centre of the door which will automatically turn on the air
conditioning and lighting when occupants enter the room and vice versa. This
would help to reduce the energy consumption of the hotel room as no energy will
be wasted when there is no one in the room which is the main purpose of our proposal.

Dear Zann 妹,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading your summary on a people-counting system, I believe that it gives insightful information to you and your groupmates on what you're all focusing on.
You do a very good job of summing up how the system works.
Overall, I think it's a very well written article.
Yours sincerely,
Angelo
