This study proposes an effective method for identifying human movement direction in indoor environments by leveraging a low-resolution time-of-flight (ToF) sensor and a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network model. While previous studies have employed camera-based or high-resolution ToF-based sensors, we utilize an 8 × 8 array ToF sensor, which is neither expensive nor related to any privacy issues. Furthermore, in contrast to the conventional rule-based algorithm, the proposed method employs the LSTM model to effectively handle the sequential time-series data. Experimental evaluations, including both basic single-person scenarios and complex multi-user challenge scenarios, confirm that the proposed LSTM-based approach achieves outstanding accuracy of 98% in identifying human entry and exit movements.
