Industrial Object Counter Kit — Predict Peak Hours with AI on Raspberry Pi 5

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Imagine building a system that monitors how many people are in a room, which seats are occupied, and predicts the busiest hours — all running on a Raspberry Pi 5. This kit gives you the sensors, storage, and compute to create an AI-powered resource planning tool for cafeterias, libraries, or offices. You’ll wire real force-sensitive resistors and IR break-beams to stream live data into an LSTM model that forecasts peak demand.

What You'll Build

A real-time people counting and seat occupancy system. You’ll wire force-sensitive resistors (FSR 402) under chair cushions to detect weight, install IR sensor modules at entry points to track foot traffic, and stream the data to a Raspberry Pi 5. The onboard LSTM model learns patterns and predicts peak hours, displayed on a dashboard that helps facility managers allocate resources efficiently. This isn’t a toy — it’s a prototype of the industrial counting systems used in smart buildings.

What You'll Learn

• Connecting multiple analog sensors to a single-board computer
• Preprocessing time-series data from FSRs and IR sensors
• Training and deploying an LSTM model on Raspberry Pi for time series forecasting
• Building a live dashboard to visualize sensor data and predictions

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

This kit targets engineering students (B.Tech ECE/EEE/CS), diploma students working on IoT projects, and participants in Smart India Hackathon or similar competitions. If you’re building a project for college or want hands-on experience with industrial sensor fusion and edge AI, this kit removes the guesswork. Hobbyists interested in smart home automation will also find the sensor array valuable.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
