Abstract
This article discusses the fundamental principles of non-contact temperature measurement, technical solutions that translate them into practice in order to automate temperature control and improve the current epidemiological situation in the world in connection with coronavirus infection, as well as a proposal for a new technical solution that is more affordable, which will increase coverage of the use of automatic systems for monitoring the body temperature of people in public places, and a description of the following steps for its implementation.
Highlights
Temperature measurement is one of the most crucial stages of human cognition of the surrounding world
Contact thermometers, which underlie bringing into physical contact with an investigated body, achieving thermodynamic equilibrium, and determining changes in an intermediate physical parameter correlated with the desired temperature value, keep retaining their popularity
Declared by WHO as a pandemic on March 11, 2020, SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus infection has had a catastrophic impact on the modern way of life
Summary
Temperature measurement is one of the most crucial stages of human cognition of the surrounding world It lies at the bottom of measuring any physical parameters directly related to it. The use of contact thermometers implies waiting for a certain amount of time to establish temperature equilibrium and imposes their continuous treatment with antiseptic agents for hygienic purposes. In such cases, it is most expedient to use devices for non-contact temperature measurement with a short response time, known as pyrometers, whose operation principle underlies measuring the intrinsic thermal radiation mainly in the infrared and visible light ranges emitted by an investigated body [2]. Automation of temperature control implies continuous registration of infrared radiation and their transmission to a processing device for further display of the processed information on output devices, for example, on a monitor screen placed directly in front of a responsible person, reacting appropriately in case of detection of a person with an elevated body temperature, meaning a possibility of their experience of fever
