Zusammenfassung:Apparatus for counting objects is disclosed. Apparatus includes a power source (108), a radio transceiver (110), two or more passive infrared (PIR) sensors (120A, 120B, 120C), one or more memories (104) including computer program code (106), a processor (102) to execute the computer program code (106), and a mechanical field of view limiting structure (126A, 128A, 130A, 126B, 128B, 130B, 126C, 128C, 130C) configured to limit the field of view of each infrared-sensitive element. The apparatus is caused to: detecting (202), by the first PIR sensor, a first motion; detecting (204), by the second PIR sensor, a second motion; if the second motion is detected within a predetermined time period after the first motion, increasing an inward count, or if the first motion is detected within a predetermined time period after the second motion, increasing an outward count; and transmitting the inward/outward count.
