Accurate Occupancy Monitoring: Ensuring Safety through Real-Time Headcounts

The problem FullHouse solves

The problem it solves involves the manual counting of people in rooms within different environments such as offices, schools, or event venues. This manual counting process poses several challenges, including being time-consuming, prone to errors, inefficient in real-time scenarios, and difficult to maintain accurate counts when the number of people is dynamically changing. Therefore, there is a need for a more efficient and accurate solution to monitor and manage the occupancy of rooms in these environments, ensuring the security and safety of the occupants.

Challenges we ran into

Due to the difference in Python versions there was some abnormality in working of some of our functions so we adapted the newer methods after reading about them in documentations and moved forward.

Understanding the yolo v3 model and its working of pretrained classes and using the one of our needs

There were issues while sending and receiving data to/from the backend database. It was our first time making get and post requests via python and NodeJs simultaneously so received some errors while coordinating different requests.Ran the script multiple times debugging all possibilities and at the end we were finally able to coordinate all the requests.
