Mass Human Fever Screening
¡@
ThermoScreen
provides the most accurate method of mass screening for high body
temperatures that may indicate a fever. By identifying people who may
be infected, ThermoScreen can help prevent the spread of contagious
diseases such as influenza, H1N1, Avian flu (bird flu) and SARS.

Description
¡@
Designed
specifically for mass fever screening, the ThermoScreen infrared fever
screening system was originally developed in response to the need to
screen large numbers of individuals for fever during the SARS outbreak
in 2003. ThermoScreen thermal imaging technology allows subjects to be
screened at a distance, without contact, providing a discreet and safe
method of detecting feverish individuals. ThermoScreen is capable of
evaluating hundreds of individuals per minute so as not to restrict
pedestrian flow. ThermoScreen is currently used in hospitals, airports,
seaports, and businesses to help prevent the spread of contagious
diseases such as influenza, H1N1, Avian flu (bird flu), and SARS.
¡@
To achieve
the high accuracy required for reliable fever detection, each
ThermoScreen infrared camera undergoes a rigorous calibration process.
Furthermore, OptoTherm employs sophisticated hardware and software
developments to compensate for environmental changes to further improve
the accuracy of screening measurements.
¡@
ThermoScreen
is sold as a complete, fully tested system including a PC with
preinstalled hardware and software.

How It Works
¡@
ThermoScreen
is a completely passive device and emits
no
harmful radiation. The ThermoScreen thermal imaging camera measures
skin temperature by detecting and quantifying the infrared energy that
is continuously being emitted from the human body. As
individuals walk past the screening station, skin temperatures above a
pre-defined threshold are detected and displayed in bright colors on the
computer screen. An audible alarm is activated to notify personnel that
a temperature violation has occurred. To allow continued screening of
individuals during a violation, the three most recent violation images
are displayed on the screen.
¡@
When mounted
in the mobile computer stand, ThermoScreen can easily be moved to
alternate locations to screen additional groups of people or to
accommodate changes in pedestrian
