The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism started using Basta Shinjuku from April 2016, and since then, development and examination of transportation hubs have been carried out in various places. "Transportation function", "Disaster prevention function", and "Communication function" are listed as the basic functions that a transportation hub should have. In developing transportation hubs with these functions, it is necessary to grasp the current usage situation, operation status, and user needs. Therefore, in this research, we used object detection technology based on deep learning, which is a type of AI (artificial intelligence) technology, to analyze users and quantify the usage situation at the bus stop at the east exit of Kintetsu Yokkaichi Station. As a result, we verify the effectiveness of the object detection technology in grasping the usage situation and user needs.
