FRANKFURT and HAMBURG, Germany, May 28, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

- Due to the corona pandemic, general practitioners and specialists face the

challenge of maintaining their practice without putting patients and staff at

increased risk of infection. In Frankfurt, Germany, a medical practice has

implemented health protection measures using 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. General

practitioner Matin Safi has chosen the Hamburg-based company's system as part

of his hygiene concept.

At the entrance of Safi's medical practice in Frankfurt, patients and staff can

make the contactless fever check by DERMALOG. The company's system 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

medical practice or a clinic without a face mask, the system displays a message

informing the person that a mask is mandatory.

"In recent months, patients have frequently canceled or postponed appointments

for fear of infection with Covid-19. Our comprehensive hygiene concept is

designed to reduce this fear and minimize the risk of infection. The fever

camera has an important role to play here," says Matin Safi.

Hospitals such as University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) and care

facilities have implemented the DERMALOG thermal camera as part of their health

protection measures. The fever detection of the Hamburg-based company is

already being used in more than 50 countries. The system also protects retail

stores, offices, manufacturing halls, sports grounds, event locations and

hotels.
