As the world explores new methods to contain the virus, many major companies such as Tyson Foods, Intel Corp, and Amazon are at the forefront of providing higher security levels. These corporations have implemented temperature monitoring solutions by outfitting their businesses with thermal detection cameras.
These same cameras have been in use at airports in the Northeast since the SARS epidemic in 2003. Current thermal surveillance technology runs on a built-in algorithm that identifies individuals with an elevated temperature. Equipped with the capability of monitoring multiple people from a distance with accuracy, this tech offers the solution for quick assessment without personal contact. These new cameras currently detect more accurately than anything else on the market.
Employers are taking the initiative and transitioning from traditional security systems and investing in today’s progressive solutions. More than 8 Amazon warehouses are already outfitted with these cameras. Company spokesperson, Kristen Kishin, made a statement in an article published by CNN Business about the recent changes “In efforts to support the health and safety of our employees, who continue to provide a critical service in our communities.” See full article here.
