FN ISI Export Format VR 1.0 PT J TI Advanced Door Area Monitoring AF Birk, Udo AU Birk, U AB Door Area Monitoring is an important focus of automated door manufacturers. Presently available door area analytics can not only detect a person wishing to pass through the door, but also discriminate the speed and direction of travel. We use a miniaturized door automation system to study such systems far beyond the conventional detection capabilities required for opening and closing the door: Doors are only partially opened where needed, and at a higher level, the results of image and ranging sensor data evaluation such as gender, age, customer identification etc. can be fed into smart building surveillance.
