According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Overcrowding of people in small areas in public gathering is one of the major issue and causes various problems like stampedes, suffocation and injuries. To prevent such problems effective management of crowd is mandatory. In this project a Smart Doorway using Arduino Uno R4 and TOP Infrared Occupancy sensor is designed. The operation of this project is by monitoring the no of people entering and present in an area using ToF Infrared sensor whose data are configured through a processor and connected to a cloud server which records the data of the sensor. Once the requires amount of people entered the cloud sewer will send information to Arduino Uno R4 Wifi in form of short messages using MQTT protocol through wifi which then controls the L298N motor board to take necessary action by closing the entrance door thus preventing overcrowding."
