Device for People Detection and Tracking Using Combined Color and Thermal Camera

This paper presents the developed device created for detection and tracking of people and their faces and temperatures. The solution does not require internet access to operate, so it can be used anywhere. The so called Covid camera is designed to automate the process of measuring temperature and verifying that a person is wearing a mask. The results obtained when testing the device in real conditions are promising and will form the basis for further application research. It is worth noting that the solution was tested in real conditions. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
