DERMALOG: Increasing Safety With Biometric Fever Screening
HAMBURG, Germany, April 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

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.
