LEVERKUSEN and HAMBURG, Germany, April 28, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Despite the void in the world's major sports arenas, #StayHome is only possible

in a limited way for many top athletes. Sports clubs are seeking solutions to

ensure training with a high level of health protection. The German Bundesliga

soccer team Bayer 04 Leverkusen uses DERMALOG's fever detection to ensure

safety at its training grounds.

Covid-19 affects competitive sports. Major events such as the Olympic Games or

the European Football Championship have already been postponed. No matches are

currently being played in the German Bundesliga either. Nevertheless, the teams

are training to be prepared for a continuation of the current season. The

players of Bayer 04 Leverkusen are also training again – of course, in

compliance with all hygienic and administrative regulations.

To provide players and coaching staff with additional health protection, "Bayer

04" uses regular temperature checks: Every person who enters the club site does

DERMALOG's contact-free fever check. Five thermal cameras at different access

points ensure increased safety in times of coronavirus. The fever detection

system of the German biometrics company measures body temperature by scanning

people's faces using state-of-the-art sensor technology. If an increased

temperature is detected, the system sets off an alarm. High accuracy, even from

a distance of up to 2 meters, is another advantage of the camera. DERMALOG's

automatic Fever Detection Camera does not require any additional operating

personnel and, as a result, ensures extra safety.

"The fever cameras are an integral part of our security concept to keep the

risk of infection to a minimum for our team and staff," says Dr. Karl-Heinrich

Dittmar, Medical Director at Bayer 04 Leverkusen.

DERMALOG's Fever Detection Camera is already operating successfully at border

controls, airports and events. Furthermore, the solution is used in the fields

of occupational safety and access management and protects shops, offices and

manufacturing halls.
