In today’s world, there is a continuous need for automated appliances. With the increase in the
living standards, there is an immediate need for developing circuits that would change the
complexity of life to simplicity. This project title “Bidirectional Visitor Counter” is designed and
presented in order to count the visitors of an auditorium, hall, offices, malls, sports venue, etc. The
system counts both the entering and exiting visitor of the auditorium or hall or other place, where it
is placed. Depending upon the sensors interruption, the system identifies the entry and exit of the
visitor. On the successful implementation of the system, it displays the number of visitor present in
the auditorium or hall. This is an economical cost reducing system when implemented in places
where the visitors have to be counted. Counting the visitors can be time consuming so it helps to
maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of employees, time saving and sales potential of an
organization, etc.
CHAPTER 1
1.1 Introduction
Bi-directional Visitor Counter is a reliable Circuit that takes over the task of counting number
of Person’s visitors in the room very accurately when somebody enters into the room then the
counter is incremented by one value and when any one leaves the room then the counter is
decremented by one value until all the persons in the room go out. The total number of persons
inside the room is also displayed on the LCD displays. The Arduino Uno does the above job. It
receives the signals from the sensors, and this signal is operated under the control of software
called Arduino (IDE). Also in addition the total number of person in the room is incremented
value or decremented value will always be displayed in the LCD.

A 16x2 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen display is very basic module and is very commonly used in
various devices and circuits. It means it can display 16 characters per line and there are 2 such lines. In this
LCD each character is displayed in 5x7 pixel matrix.
This LCD has two registers, namely, Command and Data.
Command: It stores the command instructions given to the LCD. A command is an instruction given to
LCD to do a predefined task like initializing it, clearing its screen, setting the cursor position, controlling
display etc.
Data: The data register stores the data to be displayed on the LCD. The data is the ASCII value of the
character to be displayed on the LCD. Click to learn more about internal structure of a LCD.

DESCRIPTION
NE555 TIMER IC
NE555 IC is a 8 pin device. The important electrical characteristics of timer are that it should not be
operated above 15V, it means the source voltage cannot be higher than 15v. Second, we cannot draw more
than 100mA from the chip. If don't follow these, IC would be burnt and damaged. It is used to provide time
delays.
IR LED
IR LED is a special type of LED that emits Infrared rays of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. The wavelength
of Infrared Rays is greater than that of Visible light and hence they are invisible to human eye.
A typical IR LED emits infrared rays in a wavelength range of 740 – 760 nm. There are many sources of
infrared light like sun, light bulbs, and human body etc.,.
CERAMIC CAPACITOR
It is a fixed value capacitor in which ceramic material acts a s the dielectric.It is constructed of two or more
alternating layers of ceramic and a metal layer acting as the electrodes

Description
TSOP 1738 IR Receiver
TSOP 1738 is an IR Receiver for IR (Infrared) remote controls. It consists of Photo Detector, Gain Control,
Band Pass Filter, Demodulator and a Pre – amplifier in a single package. TSOP17XX series of IR Receivers
are very common for all types of transmission codes supporting different modulating techniques like RC6,
RC5, NEC, Sony, etc.
TSOP 1738 in particular supports a carrier frequency of 38 KHz and the output of this IR Receiver can be
directly connected to a microcontroller or a microprocessor. TSOP 1738 has three pins namely GND, VS and
OUT. The following image shows the pin out of TSOP 1738.
Some of the other characteristics of TSOP 1738 are high immunity to ambient light, active low output,
low power consumption, continuous data transmission and compatibility with TTL as well as
CMOS.
BC558 TRANSISTOR
It is a general purpose PNP transistor. It is used in switching and amplifier applications. And it is used in
common emitter configuration for amplifiers.

2.2.6 JUMPERS
A jumper wire is an electrical wire or group of them in a cable with a connector at each end, which is
normally used to interconnect the components of a breadboard, internally or with other equipment or
components, without soldering.

5.2 CONCLUSION
In our project we have designed a Bi-Directional Visitor Counter.It can be used every common man
to any organisation.If this was used in auditorium halls or at seminar halls at schools and colleges then the
track record of the persons attending the seminar hall will give the exact idea about the no. of candidates
attending and leaving the seminar.
