Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this report, we propose a method for estimating the number of pedestrians under the situation that a number of pedestrians move bidirectionally such as in a corridor.
In the proposed method, a compound-eye sensor is constructed on a ceiling by closely placing two binary sensors whose sensing regions are partly overlapping, and its sensor output history is gathered to a monitoring server.
A number of Monte Carlo simulations are conducted at the server, and a simulation scenario that has the smallest difference from the output history of compound-eye sensor is selected to estimate the number of pedestrians.

Through simulation evaluations, it was shown that the estimation accuracy is improved by up to 49~\% compared to an existing method in crowded situations.
