ABSTRACT:
Methods and system for determining, a number of objects, without tracking each of the objects, in first and second fields-of-view. First and second video frames are received from first and second image sources. The image sources have the first and second fields-of-view, and the fields-of-view are known to overlap at least in part. The number of objects is determined based on the first and second video frames and the known overlap.
