The objective of this paper is to propose the bus information system that provides bus passenger number. Recently, we use a bus conveniently through introduction of bus information system offering location-based information. However, we need additional information for decision making in order to use a bus comfortably. To do this, first, we analyzed the needs of providing passenger number; second, we adopted GPS and RFID type's transportation card to get location and passenger number. Finally, we implemented the system displaying that information by three types, and tested it. Our proposed system has advantages to use a bus comfortably and to manage a bus efficiently by providing bus passenger number which is the important element for decision making as well as location based information provided by existing bus information systems.

In the field of image processing, a method of detecting and counting passengers as moving objects when getting on and off the bus has been studied. Among these technologies, one of the artificial intelligence techniques, the deep learning technique is used. As another method, a method of detecting an object using a stereo vision camera is also used. However, these techniques require expensive hardware equipment because of the computational complexity of used to detect objects. However, most video equipments have a significant decrease in computational processing power, and thus, in order to detect passengers on the bus, there is a need for an image processing technology suitable for various equipment using a relatively low computational technique. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a technique that can efficiently obtain the number of passengers on the bus by detecting the contour of the object through the background subtraction suitable for low-cost equipment. Experiments have shown that passengers were counted with approximately 70% accuracy on lower-end machines than those equipped with stereo vision camera.

본 논문에서는 버스에 설치되어 있는 비디오 카메라의 연속된 승차 영상과 추출해둔 배경 영상간의 영상차 분석을 통해 승객이 특정 구역을 통과하는 것을 감지하여 계수하는 방법을 연구하였다. 배경 영상은 운행 시와 같이 배경이 급변할 때는 연속된 두 프레임의 영상차를 이용하여 동적으로 배경 영상을 얻고 정차 시에는 배경 영상을 승차 영상과 비교하여 보정하여 주는 방법으로 최적화된 배경 영상을 얻어내었다. 본 시스템은 실제 상황에서 얻어진 비디오 영상에 적용하여 93.6%의 계수 성공률을 얻어내었다.
