1. A method for automatically determining a dynamic queue configuration, the method comprising:
- acquiring a series of frames from an image source surveying a queue area;
detecting at least one subject in a frame;
tracking locations of each detected subject across the series of frames; and
,estimating a queue configuration descriptor based on the tracking data.

Abstract
A method for automatically determining a dynamic queue configuration includes acquiring a series of frames from an image source surveying a queue area. The method includes detecting at least one subject in a frame. The method includes tracking locations of each detected subject across the series of frames. The method includes generating calibrated tracking data by mapping the tracking locations to a predefined coordinate system. The method includes localizing a queue configuration descriptor based on the tracking data.
