Overview / Usage

The people counter application will demonstrate how to create a smart video IoT solution using Intel® hardware and software tools. The app will detect people in a designated area, providing the number of people in the frame, average duration of people in frame, and total count.

Methodology / Approach

The counter will use the Inference Engine included in the Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ Toolkit. The model used should be able to identify people in a video frame. The app should count the number of people in the current frame, the duration that a person is in the frame (time elapsed between entering and exiting a frame) and the total count of people. It then sends the data to a local web server using the Paho MQTT Python package.

Technologies Used

• Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit 2019 R3 release
• Node v6.17.1
• Npm v3.10.10
• CMake
• MQTT Mosca server
