Project Summary

After reading multiple research papers and I also face the same problem which is in a mall to take some products I have to find many shops and ask about which product I want to buy it is so difficult for everyone, I understand a very common problem which people are facing in their daily life This project can be installed at the entrance of a shopping mall which will save people’s time who are coming to shop there, it will simply tell identify their age and gender the and guide them to their preferred shop. There would be less time spent wandering around the mall trying to figure out which shop, to begin with. This project consists of a camera and a laptop computer or processing device which will work together on image processing in identifying the age and gender of a person entering the mall. It would be beneficial for many businesses as well as the consumers. Artificial intelligence is the most research and trending topic in data sciences. This project is utilizing artificial intelligence to save time and benefitting businesses. This project will not provide the exact age of the person however it would be good acceptable to predict which shop they should go to out of all shops in the mall. The gender will be more accurate.

can fill them and help the people by making their life much easier and more efficient.

Project Objectives

The main idea of this project is to provide an idea or lead a person visiting the mall on which area they should visit. Going shopping is a time-consuming thing already and it becomes more time-consuming when the basic map of the mall is unknown to the person. This mechanism will be installed at the main entrance of a mall, it will include a camera that will take a picture of the person entering further this picture will be sent to the processor and it will be broken into smaller digital nodes with the help of image processing tools. The system will extract data from the nodes and compare it to the database which is preset into the system according to the different age groups and gender. In the end, it will display the age and gender of the person on the screen, along with this there should be a map installed nearby which will help indicate and direct the person on which way to go.

Project Implementation Method

Our project is based upon modern artificial intelligence (AI) which focuses on its objective of providing the basic information of age and gender based on the image or live video feeding. This project works on image processing using different tools and Python. This project can be installed at the entrance of a shopping mall which will save people time who are coming to shop there, it will simply tell identify their age and gender and guide them to their preferred shop. There would be less time spent wandering around the mall trying to figure out which shop, to begin with.

Benefits of the Project

This project is utilizing artificial intelligence to save time and benefitting businesses. This project will not provide the exact age of the person however it would be good acceptable to predict which shop they should go to out of all shops in the mall. The gender will be more accurate. The main purpose of our project is to provide the path for an individual entering a mall to save time this is achieved by dividing all the shops of the mall into the categories of different age groups and genders

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

If we go 20 years back it wouldn’t be a feasible idea to identify someone’s age and gender by a camera and a computer but through AI being so commonly studied it is now not so far fetched. When it comes to our designed model in technical aspects it is a very achievable model. It will just require a few changes and modifications in the programming and it can be replicable for industrial uses as well. In this project, all we do is take a computer system such as a laptop and install OpenCV in it after that thousands of random photos are fed into the database of that system. These photos are categorized into genders and age groups such as people from 1 to 5 years old etcetera. When the training process is done an external processor is attached to the system in this case the processor is Arduino MCU, this processor is basically used for the sorting of data that is coming from the system after identifying the age and gender of the person. Arduino MCU will be programmed and connected to the physical map of the mall; each shop will be represented with led light [12]. The webcam of the system will be used to capture real-time photo of the person trying to enter the mall, this picture will then be correlated with each picture of a different age group and gender in the database the best match will be the assigned age and gender of the person through OpenCV and image processing, next step is the decision making by Arduino each led assigned to each shop will be categorized according to the age and gender where normally people of that age group and gender shop. Arduino will decide through preset commands which led to turn on and the person will proceed to follow the map to that lead.
