Leveraging Computer Vision For Effective Crowd Management In Smart Cities

Government organizations can implement computer vision in smart cities to maintain social distancing and avoid stampedes and other disasters in crowded areas. As the global population continues to grow at an alarming rate, crowd management becomes an increasingly challenging task. The global population is reportedly projected to reach 8 billion in 2025. Global trends also indicate that the population in urban areas has been growing steadily over several years. This suggests crowd management can be even more difficult in urban areas.
