The Land vIRalert Fever Screening System – helping to combat the threat of Swine Flu / H1N1
Dronfield, UK & Pittsburgh PA, USA — When rapid screening of a large number of people is required to prevent the spread of fever, the most effective method is the vIRalert fever screening system. The system can be installed to look at the faces of people passing through a doorway.
If elevated temperatures are detected an alarm will sound to enable staff to take the person away for a more detailed consultation with a health care professional.
When rapid screening of a large number of people is required to prevent the spread of fever, the most effective method is a fixed thermal imaging system.
The vIRalert system can be installed to look at the faces of people passing through a doorway. If elevated temperatures are detected, an alarm condition will alert a staff member who can decide whether further action is required.
The vIRalert system uses the proven technique of in-scene calibration to give unparalleled accuracy compared to other imaging camera techniques.
The vIRalert thermal imaging system provides a thermographic image of human body temperatures (typically the face) at a distance and comparing it with that of an extremely precise blackbody calibration source at high speed – 9Hz – to provide a highly accurate measurement of body temperature.
Thermal imaging is a fast non-intrusive, non-contact means of detecting temperature radiance differences. The Land vIRalert thermal imaging system, utilising a certified calibrated source, provides unparalleled accuracy compared to other imaging camera techniques.
LAND human body temperature measurement systems have been operated successfully at airports around the world since the SARS outbreak in 2003.
