- Due to the corona pandemic, hospitals and clinics face the challenge of 
maintaining practice without putting patients and staff at increased risk of 
infection. Greifswald University Hospital in Germany 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. Greifswald 
University Hospital has chosen the Hamburg-based company's system as part of 
its hygiene concept.

At the hospital's entrance, the staff can make the contactless fever check by 
DERMALOG. The company's system measures body temperature in real-time 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 center or practice without a face mask, 
the system displays a message informing the person that a mask is mandatory.
"Fever detection is an integral part of our hygiene concept and reduces the 
risk of infection among our employees," says Professor Nils-Olaf Hübner, head 
of the hospital's central hygiene department.

Other hospitals 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 60 countries. The 
system also protects retail stores, offices, manufacturing halls, sports 
grounds, event locations and hotels.
