The presentation addresses the urgent need for early warning systems to prevent crowd-related tragedies, highlighting the 2025 incidents that resulted in over 47 deaths. It critiques existing measures that fail to respond to sudden surges and discusses the limitations of costly technologies like AI and LiDAR. The proposed solution is a low-cost pressure mat sensor, priced at ₹2,500, designed to detect unsafe crowd densities and trigger alerts. This system can be installed at footbridge...
