Abstract
A system for counting objects, such as people, crossing an area includes a camera configured for capturing video images along a surface in the area. The surface includes a plurality of detectable features on the surface. A user interface allows an individual to define a region where object detection is desired. A processor processes the images and counts a detected object in the region when criteria for counting are satisfied.
