Room occupancy measurement using low-resolution infrared cameras.

Conference Proceeding
Berger, M., & Armitage, A. (2010)
Room occupancy measurement using low-resolution infrared cameras. https://doi.org/10.1049/cp.2010.0521
Measuring room occupancy has always been a desirable endeavour. This could be for security reasons, to save energy or simply for statistical reasons. Recently the use of therm...
