The need for effective and efficient fever screening methods has become of greatest importance in the wake of global health crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Fever, a common symptom of many infectious diseases, including COVID-19, is a critical indicator of potential illness or virus. As businesses and public spaces seek to reopen safely, it is vital to implement measures that ensure healthy employees’ and visitors’ health and safety to avoid spreading the virus. Traditional methods of fever measurement, such as oral thermometers, are invasive but also time-consuming and impractical for large-scale screening. Additionally, the risk of cross-contamination through contact-based methods further necessitates a non-contact approach. Infrared temperature measurement technology offers a solution by enabling quick, accurate, and non-invasive fever detection. The motivation for deploying IR temperature screening lies in its ability to rapidly identify individuals with elevated body temperatures, thereby preventing the spread of infections and maintaining a safe environment. Virus epidemics like the Swine influenza in 2009/2010 and the Ebola virus in 2014 have previously highlighted the global demand for suitable screening techniques that allow fast, non-contact detection of individuals with potential fever. The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified this need, pushing for more reliable and efficient solutions. Implementing an effective fever screening system can significantly mitigate the risk of viral transmission in high-traffic areas, such as workplaces, airports, schools, and public venues, thus playing a crucial role in public health and safety strategies.
