Thermographic Cameras: A “What’s Next” in Safety Essentials

Jim Denor safety & compliance, Senior Environments, Technology

The country will soon be coming out of the “Safer at Home” initiatives that have been in place for months. While we are all looking forward to getting back to more “normal” daily lives and returning to work, safety remains the key element in successfully restarting our economy and lives.

One of the key elements related to safety and the return to “normal” is the quick ability to identify individuals who are symptomatic for Covid -19. An easily recognizable symptom of this disease is elevated temperature.

ClearPath has access to a technology solution which can help organizations quickly and easily identify individuals that have elevated skin temperatures. HIKVISION USA is a video surveillance company that offers four different highly accurate thermographic cameras which can be deployed to monitor people entering a facility and provide the following:

  • Hikvision’ s highly accurate temperature measurement thermal cameras can be used for temperature screening with accuracy up to ±0.9°Fahrenheit.
  • Detects temperature in one second.
  • Face Detection: identifies up to 30 individual faces at a time.
  • Increased safety, non-contact measurement from a distance.
  • Multiple camera choices for different measurement distances.
  • The ability to measure an object’s temperature at high accuracy in real time.
  • Advanced Algorithms: Achieve highly reliable accuracy with Hikvision’s proprietary temperature measurement algorithms.
  • Bi-Spectrum: provides both thermal and optical (4MP) image channels apart from temperature measurement
  • Embedded Audio Alarm: Trigger alarms to notify operators immediately when an abnormal temperature is detected.

These cameras are not medical devices. However, with their high degree of accuracy, they are a great first line of defense to identify individuals who may need to be asked to participate in an additional level of screening prior to being allowed to enter the facility.
