This project focuses on developing a mobile device for counting and monitoring cyclists and pedestrians entering specified zones at Nanyang Technological University (NTU). The primary objective is to design a wireless device that can be easily deployed at various locations within the campus, offering minimal human intervention. The device employs computer vision techniques to accurately count cyclists and pedestrians, providing real-time data on the movement patterns in the monitored areas. Furthermore, the device offers clear visual representations of the collected data for straightforward analysis. The emphasis on computer vision-based methods ensures precision and efficiency in counting. This project aims to contribute to improved safety and resource allocation by offering detailed insights into the flow of cyclists and pedestrians within the university.
