ABSTRACT
The number of people infected with COVID-19 is skyrocketing all over the world. It causes symptoms such as fever, shortness of breath, and other breathing difficulties and it affects people differently. Elevated heart rate (above 90 beats per minute), increase in body temperature (above 37 degree Celsius), lower oxygen saturation (less than 94 percent) are serious symptoms. To detect the virus early and restrict its spread, Cov-Verhindern is a versatile device that can be used anywhere such as shops, malls and educational institutions. 'Verhindern' is a German term that means 'Try to avoid'. We're attempting to stop the spread of COVID-19 here, hence the term 'Cov-Verhindern'. This system includes sanitizing session, temperature sensing, oxygen saturation and heart beat monitoring through an IoT-based program along with a gate mechanism and interaction process. © 2022 Author(s).
