    This document proposes a real-time people counter using background subtraction, Gaussian blurring, thresholding, and contour detection to track the center of each object entering or exiting an area. The method achieved 87.5% accuracy in counting people, an improvement over previous experiments using face detection which rely on specific camera angles. While the results were good, the document concludes that segmentation could help improve the people counter.

    Real time People Counter

    Dale Baker
    Goal/Problem
    Counting the number of people in a given area by watching the exit and counting
    people leave/enter
    Background research
    Face detection

    Edge detection/classifiers (histogram of gradients)

    Circle detection (circular hough transform)


    Method - background subtraction
    Gaussian blur/resizing

    Background subtraction

    Closing/thresholding

    Contours

    Track center of each object


    Results
    87.5% accuracy - similar to previous experiments

    Improvement on face detection as

    it doesn’t rely on specific camera

    angles
    Conclusion
    Pretty good

    Needs segmentation
