N2  - This study introduces a real-time Crowd Monitoring and Occupancy Level System de signed for the CSPC campus canteen. The primary objective is to address the challenges of traditional crowd monitoring methods by implementing the YOLOv8 algorithm for au tomated detection and counting of individuals. The system processes video streams from a designated area, quantifies the detected crowd, and categorizes the occupancy level as less crowded, crowded, or overcrowded. The prototype was evaluated for its accuracy and func tionality in the campus canteen, demonstrating high efficiency in detecting crowds with a precision score of 97.20%, recall of 96.08%, and accuracy of 93.50%. The results indicate that the system successfully automates crowd monitoring and occupancy level detection, making it suitable for applications in public safety, resource management, and planning. Future work could explore enhancements such as multi-camera integration, server integra tion, and predictive analytics for crowd movement trends
