Abstract
One variation of a method includes, at a sensor block: detecting a set of objects within a region-of-interest in a frame; detecting an object type of each object; detecting a location of each object within the region-of-interest; and storing object types and object locations of the set of objects in a set of containers. The method further includes, at the computer system: accessing a database of commissioning images; extracting a commissioning image annotated with boundaries from the database; initializing a visualization layer of a set of pixels representing the region-of-interest; and calculating a frequency of presence of the object type intersecting each pixel based on the set of containers; calculating a color value for each pixel based on the frequency of presence; and assigning the color value to each pixel in the visualization layer; and generating a heatmap of the region-of-interest based on the visualization layer and the commissioning image.
