Abstract

The Bus Passenger Detector System (BPD) is a device that utilises electronic components to assist bus operators, particularly those in the travel bus industry. Passengers frequently miss the bus during R&R (Rest and Recuperation) due to the necessity for more time to attend to personal matters, such as using the lavatory or eating. In addition, abandoned belongings pose significant challenges for passengers to reclaim or may be susceptible to theft. The objective of this project is to effectively address and resolve both of the identified issues. In order to ensure the success of the project, it is essential to develop a fundamental report, such as a flowchart and schematic diagram, prior to the implementation of the product. This device is specifically engineered to deliver instantaneous data regarding the passenger count on the bus as well as the contents of the overhead storage compartment. Additionally, it can enhance the effectiveness of bus operations and enhance customer convenience by delivering up-to-the-minute data on bus capacity and the whereabouts of unoccupied seats. This project is implemented based on specific criteria, including user-friendliness, ease of installation, high quality, ease of comprehension, and affordability. The Bus Passenger Detector project is an advantageous instrument for surveilling individuals and articles on a bus.
