HANDEWITT and HAMBURG, Germany, May 20, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

- The Corona pandemic poses significant challenges for retail stores and

shopping centers. Businesses must implement numerous health protection measures

without compromising customer experience too much. This is why German

Scandinavian Park mall has opted for DERMALOG's non-contact fever detection.

With its Fever Detection Camera, DERMALOG has developed a solution that

measures body temperatures fast and accurately when walking by and can

significantly reduce the risk of infection spreading in many areas.

Scandinavian Park in Handewitt also uses the company's system as part of its

hygiene concept.

At the entrance to the shopping center's market, every customer can make the

contactless fever check by DERMALOG. The system of the German biometrics

company measures body temperature within one second by scanning people's faces

using state-of-the-art sensor technology. If an increased temperature is

detected, the system displays an alert message. High accuracy, even from a

distance of up to 2 meters, is another advantage of the camera. As an option,

DERMALOG's temperature check includes automated mask detection. If a person

enters a shop without a face mask, the system displays a message informing the

person that a mask is mandatory.

"Currently, a lot of customers are insecure, whether they can shop without

hesitation. By using a fever camera, we want to reduce this insecurity to a

certain extent and, at the same time, make a significant contribution to health

protection at Scandinavian Park," says Frank Sauerberg, management board member

of Scandinavian Park Petersen KG.

DERMALOG's thermal camera was initially developed for border controls and

airports. "In the meantime, our fever detection has become an important part of

health protection in numerous sectors," says DERMALOG CEO Günther Mull.

German Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs also recommends the use of

contactless fever detection for "rapid clarification of suspected cases". The

ministry's latest SARS-CoV-2 Occupational Health and Safety Standard states:

"Notable symptoms of infection with coronavirus include fever, coughing and

shortness of breath. For this purpose, provision must be made if possible for

non-contact temperature measurement."

Numerous companies and institutions have already put these recommendations into

practice. DERMALOG's temperature check is already applied in more than 50

countries. The system protects retail stores, offices, manufacturing halls,

sports grounds, event locations and hospitals.
