Digital Twin for Temple Security and Crowd Management

The article describes a system based on Digital Twin technology that resolves security and crowd management issues in temple zones, where large gatherings usually result in such problems. The system's main feature is the real-time tracking of individuals through YOLO-based object detection, along with the detection of left-behind objects to quickly identify possible security threats. In addition to the detection of objects, the system also provides information about the crowd density. This data is then rendered as a 3D interactive spatial map that always clearly shows the distribution of the crowd. After the detection of either a case of overcrowding or a suspicious object, the system automatically activates alarms that enable the prompt response of security staff. The entire system is connected to a monitoring dashboard for visualization and control in real-time, which is developed on Dash and further incorporated within a Wix-based web interface to guarantee easy access and operational flexibility. The suggested methodology results in a strong Digital Twin framework for the improvement of situational awareness, the elimination of manual monitoring, and the betterment of safety management in sensitive and heavily populated areas like temples.
