Many related works are done for the counting purpose, we will see the advantages and disadvantages of the works done including the project itself. This research paper contains the details of the hardware used. Separate explanation for each hardware is also given.

Keywords: Raspberry Pi, Audience Count, Attendance.

1.Introduction:

This research is based on the interfacing of some components such as sensor with Raspberry pi microcontroller. Counting of audience can be done in both directions using this device and can also take snaps as the sensor detects. Any person entering a hall/auditorium/room can be counted using this device. When a person enters into the auditorium the sensors detect and increment the count and decrements when the person leaves. Whenever the count is taken camera takes a snap the persons entering. The snap taken by the camera depends on which direction the sensor is detecting the person. It can also be used in many public areas like class rooms or gates of parking areas. Here in this project we will be using the embedded technology for the purpose of student attendance count. Using this we will be able to the count the number of students entered the classroom using PIR and Ultrasonic sensors. Any interruption is observed by the sensor then it provides an input to the controller. Depending on the number persons entering and exiting the device would run for increment and decrement. Counting is displayed on the server monitor and through

Ms. Reshma Sultana, Ms. Seema Sultana, Mr. Mohammad Osman designed a teacher-student interaction system based on ZIGBEE and RFID technology and implemented for the application of actual teaching. Results show that the system achieved the basic functions of a teacher-student interaction system. The teacher-student interaction system consists of RFID systems with ZIGBEE subsystems, can enhance the learning interaction between students and teachers. Students may also rely on this system to effectively communicate and interact with teachers, to unfamiliar places for learning and ask questions at any time, to avoid face to face embarrassing questions or omission may be a key.

Tussanai Parthornratt, Natchaphon Burapanonte, Wisarute Gunjarueg implemented an openCV in an embedded system like raspberry Pi to create a mini standalone station for counting people. The key feature of AU-PiCC (Assumption University raspberry Pi Customer Counter) is to count a number of interested people on target product in a pre-defined area along with a simple face identification to avoid counting duplicates

Milos Drutarovsky, Dusan Kocur, Maria Svecova and Nuno M. Garciat did Ultra-wide band (UWB) radar is a very perspective technology for short-range localization and tracking of moving persons. UWB radar sensor network (UWB-SN) employing the centralized data fusion method can significantly improve tracking capabilities of more people in complex building environments. The proposed UWB-SN uses wireless RF communication by using FSK modulation in free short range devices (SRD) 868-870 MHz frequency band concurrently with operation of the UWB radar front-end.

1.2. Problem Statement

From all the above existing systems there is no such research which gives us the exact count of the audience present in an auditorium. For RFID the person needs to be manually near the device for the count to be taken. For this Bluetooth is used for the purpose of monitoring, which is applicable for small area. In others a Pi camera is used for face detection which means the person nedd to be in the area where the camera can take a clear snap of the person. This is not possible for all situations. Some error may occur while detecting the customer’s face.id the Pi camera don’t detect the customer face then the data can’t be read. While using Ultra-Wide band (UWB), the radar tracks the movement of persons in a complex building environments, the cost effect is high. The same will be for the same home technology. It requires huge investment to use these devices.

1.3. Solution Approach and Methodology

For avoiding all these disadvantages we will be using the embedded technology for the purpose of audience count. Using this we will be able to the count the number of audience entered the classroom using PIR and Ultrasonic sensors. We can also count the number of students left the classroom after entering. If any student exits the classroom the decrement in the count will be send to the management room via ZigBee/Wi-Fi Communication. Also for every particular mentioned time the student count will send to the management room and the management can easily monitor the student count value.

1.4. Wireless module

ZigBee: ZigBee uses low-power digital radio signals. It is used for personal area networks for long range distances (measured). It is an open global standard for wireless technology and operates on the IEEE specification. Networks that require a low data transfer rate, energy efficiency and secure networking use ZigBee.

WIFI: Wifi uses radio waves to provide high-speed wireless internet and network connections limited to low range distances (In Mts). It is a popular wireless technology.

1.5. Applications

Embedded C-Language Embedded C language is use in this research for the purpose of the Coding.

Raspberry Pi The Raspberry Pi has inbuilt Wifi resource which can send data directly to the server or mail for larger distance

Python Programming Raspberry Pi works using python coding. So Python Programming is used .

1.6. Platform

Embedded Technology (ET) Embedded system designers and managers use ET because it is the worrld’s largest Trade-Show and conference.

1.7. Domain

Wireless communication Wireless communication is used for transferring the information or power between two or more points. Which are not connected by an electrical conductor. Radio waves are mostly used in wireless communication.

1.8. Working

The working of the device is mostly depended on the Ultra Sonic sensors. When a person is entering a room the Ultra Sonic sensor placed in the front detects the person and the PIR detects the heat of the person indicating the camera to take the snap of the person. If the person is leaving the room the the Ultra Sonic sensor placed in the inner side of the room will detect the person and indicates the camera to take the snap of the person. All this data can be seen in the monitor of the server used and also we can send the snaps instantly to a particular mail or the data can be seen by using the IP address of the Raspberrypi board.

The camera is connected to a DC motor to help it rotate towards the person entering or exiting and take a snap of the person. When there are no persons present in the room the power in the room is automatically switched off and when someone enters into the room the power is generated automatically. This is done using a relay. When some person enters the room an AC load is generated and the relay is triggered switching on the fans and lights in the room.

Ultra Sonic Sensors For detecting the distance of the object the Ultra Sonic sensors use sound waves. When a sound wave at a specific frequency is sent out, the sound wave that is bounced back is listened to measure the distance. The both sensor and receiver look like a pair of eyes, they are not sight sensors but like a sound sensor as in case of a speaker and a microphone.
