Abstract :
A new image processing algorithm used for pedestrian counting is introduced. The algorithm was ported to a TMS320C50 based platform and performs the pedestrian counting task in real time. The system has been tested at St Lazare Railway Station in Paris with better than 80% accuracy in the counting results
