IR-based fever detection

With the People Thermal Tracker, it is possible to recognise fever in time; the face is detected and the temperature determined. The person who has been recognised with a high temperature, is displayed in a colour image on a display and their image can be sent to the mobile devices of the security personnel. Thanks to the immediate display of the detected person, the security personnel can separate this person from a group and get them to medical staff.

The integrated interfaces for the control of actuators are readily installed. This means that an alarm can be issued (either visual or acoustic). Also, the control of doors, which can close or open in a case of alarm, is possible. Thanks to the real-time evaluation, there is no delay between throughput and alarm.

The combination of face recognition based on Deep Learning and thermal imaging cameras is an ideal solution, even to detect temperatures on the foreheads of a crowd of people. Separating is not necessary, as the position of the faces is recognised automatically. The system can not only be used at controlled areas such as airports and the like, but can also capture big crowds and squares; the face of each person is recognised and the temperature measured. At the same time the measured temperatures are issued and a check measurement for comparison can be carried out.

On the hardware end the system can be optimised for different applications. In case of an access control, a camera with a low resolution can be used. For systems that are overlooking whole squares a correspondingly higher resolution is necessary. The People Thermal Tracker needs only half a day to setup and is then immediately ready to use.
