AI on Edge Powered Thermal Screening for Elevated Body Temperature (EBT)

Overview

As the world is grappling with the pandemic, organizations are ensuring that regular precautionary and preventive measures are in place to detect the most common symptom of Elevated Body Temperatures (EBT) of individuals, which is indicative of illness. While manual thermal screening processes have seen a rise in adoption, some of the key challenges are but not limited to:

  • Operator Risk – Requires a full-time operator leading to a potential risk of both the operator and person getting infected
  • Attention lapses – Momentary lapse in attention could result in a potential carrier being allowed into the premise compromising safety
  • Queue Buildups – Handheld thermal scanning approach or unavailability of operators leads to the formation of long queues causing operational delays

Infosys addresses these concerns through an AI-powered Thermal Scanning proprietary solution by utilizing the Infosys Visual intelligence platform, a spinoff of its Autonomous Systems initiative. This solution is a fully automated thermal screening process with zero human involvement. It takes the feed captured by the thermal camera, processes it using the Computer Vision (CV) and AI algorithms on EDGE device in real-time and alerts the concerned team for further examination.
