The device, which is made from a smartphone fitted with thermal and 3D laser cameras, is able to scan people's temperature as they walk, detecting and alerting when someone has a fever. This was a very tangible answer to the real issue of long lines and wait times to enter buildings when using manual forehead thermometers, which required every visitor to be stopped and screened. The AI device not only cuts down on wait time but also provides a safer alternative for frontline staff who now can stay at a safe distance from the steady flow of people entering and exiting buildings.
