How about having the beam breaks pointing vertical?? This way the arms or legs or anything don't "break" the beam unless its the body of the person???
Any thoughts?

Bad assumption

me =6ft 2
she = 5ft nothing

I think the key to counting with a beam break is to make some assumptions
about the usage rather than the height...it is pretty unlikely that people
will go through a doorway in tandem there will be a discernable break between
people which will be longer than that caused by a single person.


Test, monitor and fine tune is the way to do it :)

Regards
Mick
