Entry Screening Device for Public Transport During Pandemic Period

Social distancing is the one of the preferred ways to get out of the current situation and it has become difficult to follow it. Most people use public transport as a medium to travel. It becomes very difficult to maintain an effective social distance in public transports. So, we have planned to give a solution to address this problem by ensuring safeness in buses. Here, we kept a fixed limit for persons entering into the bus and before that they had to pass the temperature check and mask detection checks. The device consists of a Raspberry pi Module which acts as a system, a Camera module, PIR Sensors, Infrared Temperature Sensors, LCD Monitor. LCD Monitor shows the details of the number of persons that can be accommodated in a particular bus and the number of people present inside the bus. Temperature sensors, such as infrared temperature sensors, are used to detect the temperature of people entering the bus. It is captured and determined whether or not the person is wearing their mask in the entrance by the Camera Module. PIR Sensors are used to monitor the count of the persons entering or exiting the bus which is displayed in the LCD monitor. So, these work together and make the entry screening while entering a transport system.
