Companies Detecting Elevated Body Temperatures Help Slow the Spread of Coronavirus Cases.
thermal cameras are being used in public spaces—such as airports, businesses, factories, grocery stores and more—as an effective tool to measure skin surface temperature and identify individuals with Elevated Body Temperature (EBT).
“For years, going back to the SARS outbreak and others, FLIR technology has been incorporated into ports and borders and airports and other places to look for elevated body temperatures.” Jim Cannon, FLIR CEO
FLIR thermal cameras detect heat radiation and can be used to identify the surface temperature of objects and people. With this capability, FLIR thermal cameras are commonly used as a non-contact screening tool to detect differences in skin surface temperatures and pattern changes. In fact, FLIR has received US FDA approval for using a variety of its thermal products to screen high traffic public places like airports, train stations, office buildings and grocery stores.
“Several of our cameras available for public purchase are USFDA 510k rated and can help agencies and businesses identify individuals or employees who may have a fever or higher than normal body temperature. This is an incredible tool and an important step to help flatten the curve and spread of COVID-19.” Todd A. Hillhouse, Planet Inhouse, Inc. CEO.
The lower price point on entry level models makes this a great tool and asset to have. The higher resolution in the newer handhelds also increases temperature reading accuracy at the pixel level and makes these devices much more effective than ever before.
