Hi everyone!

 

I'm new with Tinker Forge and was wondering if you could give me some tips to start my project.

 

The main goal is to count how many person go in and out a room using sensors, obviously. My boss bought tones of modules such as: Distance IR Bricklet, distance Us Bricklet, Hall effect Bricklet, Motion detector Bricklet, sound intensity Bricklet and so on. I also have all the Master Bricks I need, the power modules, etc...

 

The challenge is that we would need the sensors to ignore when the door opens so it can only count how many head are in a room.

 

Any suggestions on how I could setup the sensors to prevent them to ignore when a door opens?

 

Thank you very much 

I would go for a software solution. Raspberry Pi + Raspi Camera + OpenCV + Java/Python Bindings for OpenCV (opencv.org).

 

This is what you can do with it:

 

Also great tutorials with OpenCV and Python if you want to start with it.
