Application Note: Preventing The Spread Of Infectious Diseases
Infectious diseases, causing fever, can easily spread due to international travelling. Early detection of elevated body temperature, fever, is crucial to avoid this spreading. An effective disease-prevention strategy with infrared thermography needs to be in place.
Infrared cameras detect the heat emitted from the skin which produces a temperature map of a person in real time. Totally harmless and non intrusive, just the way a normal camera records a video clip. The result is a coloured image where the colours represent temperature. Temperatures higher than a certain threshold can be highlighted.
