GUIDE IR Fever Warning System Applications

The market demand for infrared thermal imaging systems has significantly

increased as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic. Powered by a mature supply

chain and capacity management systems, Guide Infrared has so far delivered over

30,000 sets of GUIDE IR Fever Warning Systems - a type of automated thermal

imaging and warning system for fever screening - since February.

In response to rising numbers of cases and escalated supply chain pressure,

Guide Infrared launched an emergency plan to partner with suppliers to help

employees return to factories, resulting in production levels of 1,000 sets of

equipment per day. To help contain the outbreak, batches of Guide's IR Fever

Warning Systems have been installed in public and private spaces such as

transportation hubs, hospitals, large enterprises, hotels, and shopping malls.

"During the fight against SARS in 2003, we successfully developed  first-

thermal-imaging IR Fever Screening System. Now, 17 years later, we've upgraded

our R&D capability to produce thermal imaging cameras powered by artificial

intelligence and facial recognition technology to conduct fast and accurate

temperature measurement in vast spaces," said Huang Li, Chairman of Guide

Infrared.

The Company's latest thermal imaging fever screening products are

continuously-optimized through software, hardware and algorithm upgrades, based

on deep learning neural networks. To diversify application scenarios, Guide has

rolled out a series of thermal imaging systems including fixed-mounted IR Fever

Warning Systems, Handheld Fever Screening Thermal Cameras and fever scanners

for smartphones.

Considering safety issues brought by the pandemic, China has moved the China

Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) online, which will take place on June 15

to 24, where Guide will participate and demonstrate all Guide's best-selling

thermal imaging products including the three of the above-mentioned products

via live-stream, which will be available on the Company's official Facebook

@GuideSensmart.
