Revolutionary Technology for Accurate Vehicle Occupancy Counting

The video discusses a new technique developed in the UK for counting people in moving vehicles, aimed at easing traffic congestion by enforcing express lanes for vehicles with multiple occupants. Traditional methods require many observers or costly technology, which are often ineffective. The new system uses a specific infrared wavelength absorbed by human skin but reflected by other materials, effectively identifying vehicles with non-human occupants. This technology is also of interest for border monitoring.
