System and method of adaptive transmitter for an object detection system

A computer-implemented method for object detection, using a computer processor and a multi-sensor gateway system to meet health and safety requirements based on proximity information, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing a first pillar having a plurality of first sensors;
• providing a second pillar having a plurality of second sensors;
• providing a platform computer server and processor configured to receive data and process the data;
• providing a printed circuit board (PCB) on the first or second pillar, configured to support the plurality of sensors;
• providing one or more adaptive transmitters on the first or second pillars configured for changing power levels to meet health and safety requirements based on proximity information provided by the first or second sensors;
• receiving data from the plurality of sensors;
• analyzing the data using the acquisition parameters;
• and
• wherein the adaptive transmitters are configured to operate in a two-mode power level configuration whereby:
• a patron passes through the first and second pillars and stays far enough away from the transmitters, the transmitters operate in a high field configuration and remain under appropriate health and safety levels in a first mode;
• and
• the patron moves close to the first and second pillars and enters a second proximity boundary, the apparatus switching to a lower power setting to remain within the appropriate health guidelines, in a second mode;
• wherein the adaptive transmitters are placed on the first and second pillars using an adaptive transmitter configuration.
