People stream counting system and method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a people stream counting system and a method thereof. The method comprises: firstly, recording the first face information at a first time point into a memory; then, identifying whether an image captured by a camera at the second time point is a complexion zone; if the complexion zone is real face, further judging that the face is frontal face or side face, and recording the judgement result into spurious face information; then, matching the similarity of the spurious face information and the first face information one by one; when the similarity matching reaches the set condition, taking the spurious face information as the first face information; when the similarity matching does not reach the set condition, recording the spurious face information as the second face information into the memory, and setting that the first face information is shaded; and finally, calculating the amount of people stream which passes through according to the face recorded by the memory.

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The previous technology proposed a "counting method of people entering and exiting the gate". The method is to place a camera on the ceiling at the entrance and look down, and count the number of people passing through by judging independent moving objects. However, this method does not have the function of face recognition, so Unable to get the number of people watching the ad at the same time

In addition, another previous technology has also proposed to obtain the current number of people watching the advertisement with a face recognition device, but it can only provide the number of people watching the advertisement at each time point, and there is no other function for further analysis of data for reference
