A framework of multi-point infrared temperature screening system for COVID-19 pandemic

ABSTRACT

This paper describes a framework for COVID-19 pandemic screening that includes a multi-infrared temperature sensor. Due to the high risk of transmission of the COVID-19 epidemic in closed areas, it is important to secure these areas in terms of epidemics. Symptoms of COVID-19 disease include fever in patients. Thermal cameras or infrared temperature sensors are used to detect this anomaly in real-time. In this study, a study was carried out on which multiple uses of infrared sensors increase the measurement performance. Additionally, the general concept of an intelligent long-range temperature measurement system with facial recognition support is presented, which may be simply integrated with this approach. © 2021 IEEE.
