An IoT Transport Architecture for Passenger Counting: A Real Implementation
Janine Kniess, Julio Cezar Rutke, William Alberto Cruz Castañeda · Integrated Network Management · 2021
A smart urban mobility considers the technological-based development in transport systems, services and their use to improve the movement of people and goods inter or intra-cities. Cities increasingly face problems caused by traffic and need to find solutions to improve mobility and to reduce congestion and pollution. In this paper, we present a Passenger Counting Scheme into buses. Embedded counting algorithms based on Computer Vision are proposed to count passenger arrivals and departures in real time. Experiments in a real scenario expose that the proposed scheme achieved a high percentage of success in passenger count.
