Abstract :
This paper introduces some general count methods of bus passenger flow and the theory about kinematics of human body. And it analyzes the characteristic of thenar pressure caused by stepping on bus pedal. In this paper, we propose a new counting method of bus passenger flow based on kinematics of human body. Finally, this paper proves the feasibility and effectivity of the new method through experimental results. And it solves the problem that low cost device canpsilat count the number of passengers accurately and canpsilat distinguish the direction of passengerspsila movement.
