SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SMART BUILDING CONTROL USING DIRECTIONAL OCCUPANCY SENSORS

A method includes receiving a first plurality of electrical signals from presence sensors disposed in a physical space, generating background sensor values mapped to a coordinate system for the physical space, receiving, a second plurality of electrical signals from the presence sensors, and generating, based on the second plurality of electrical signals from the presence sensors, sensor values mapped to the coordinate system for the physical space at the first time and the second time. The method further includes subtracting the background sensor values from the sensor values mapped to the coordinate system to obtain measurement data, associating the measurement data with a moving object belonging to an object class, determining a track, based on the measurement data, the track comprising a link between a first node and another node in the coordinate system for the physical space; and outputting, a control signal associated with the determined track.
