HAMBURG, Germany, April 3, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

When it comes to a viral infection, fever is one of the most frequent symptoms.

The German company DERMALOG has developed a camera, which measures body

temperature with outstanding accuracy and speed to make a significant

contribution to the containment of pandemics.

Covid-19 often causes an increase in body temperature. According to the German

Robert Koch Institute, almost 90% of infected people in China have been

diagnosed with fever. This focus on fever screening as a preventive measure to

contain the current pandemic. With its Fever Detection Camera, DERMALOG has

developed a solution that provides fast and precise measurement results and

reduces significantly the risk of infection spreading in many areas of daily

life.

The fever detection system of the biometrics company measures body temperature

by scanning people's faces using state-of-the-art sensor technology. The

DERMALOG camera can simultaneously check up to 5 people for fever. If an

increased temperature is detected, the system sets off an alarm or even denies

access, for example, as part of an automated access control system.

High accuracy, even from a distance of up to 2 meters, is another advantage of

the camera. When using a handheld thermometer, the recommended safety distance

cannot be maintained, which leads more quickly to infections. In contrast,

DERMALOG's automatic Fever Detection Camera does not require any additional

operating personnel and, as a result, ensures extra safety.

The company's solution is already in use at border controls, airports, trade

fairs and events. The system is also suitable for the protection of healthcare

facilities such as hospitals and nursing homes. Access to factories, offices,

shopping centers, hotels, schools and authority locations can also be secured

with the DERMALOG technology.
