Temperature monitoring specialist Ametek Land has launched a new body temperature screening system to help prevent the spread of infectious diseases such as Covid-19. The system provides real-time infrared thermal imaging from a safe social distance by scanning for high temperatures that could indicate infection.
The Viralert 3 is claimed to be the first of its kind, providing a camera and a temperature-controlled reference source on a single mounting. Using automatic face detection, it locates the best areas for temperature detection, taking a reading that is accurate to within 0.5oC, then calculating core body temperature through a rapid test procedure of approximately two seconds.
