Use Infrared Cameras to identify fever and increased body temperature
Major travel hubs like airports, seaports, railway stations and long-distance bus stations are one of the points on which the security measures of public authorities are aimed when infectious diseases such as
- Coronavirus (2019-nCoV, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2)
- Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
- Ebola Virus Disease (EVD)
- Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV)
cause global problems. From there, diseases can be effectively prevented from spreading further.
InfraTec infrared cameras can be used for a corresponding thermal fever screening for passengers. Their thermographic systems enable a non-contact and areal coverage of the body temperature, which preferably is detected at the inner angle of the eye. Slightest differences and thus abnormal body temperatures can be displayed and will result in alarms. Performing such health screenings, e.g. via implementing temperature checkpoints, enable the acquisition of important information as a basis for decision-making for subsequent medical examinations of the selected people and thus serve to secure public areas.
Advantages of using infrared cameras for thermal fever screening of passengers
- Contactless and planar temperature measurement without external reference radiator
- Large field of view for rapid checking of large groups of people
- Resolution also of smaller areas of the skin (angle of the eye) from a safe distance
- Display and evaluation in real time
- Reliable temperature measurements based on low noise infrared detectors and precision calibration
- Alarming at surpassing temperature thresholds (fever)
- Easily installable all-in-one unit for continuous monitoring of persons and groups of people
- Solutions for stationary and handheld use available
- Fitting to larger external digital displays via HDMI*
