The system uses Bluetooth sensors in each room to discover people's Bluetooth devices and display the information on a floor map in real time. So we can use the map to know the popularity of different room. In order to protect people's privacy, only the discoverable device's mac address will be collected. But if people are interested in this project. They can submit their name and mac address so that their friends can find them easily. The data generated by this project is also valuable for further application and analysis.
