Monitoring areas for mask compliance and scanning for those running a fever may be key to getting business back up and running safely during this coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic. Problem is, old techniques are labor-intensive and prone to false positives.
AAEON, a leader in IoT and AI edge computing solutions, takes traditional monitoring techniques using thermal cameras and CCTV and adds AI technology with deep learning to the mix.

The AAEON BOXER-8120AI equipped with NVIDIA Jetson TX2 can be hooked up to thermal and CCTV cameras and can be used to monitor entrances and other areas with high-volume foot traffic. When the system detects someone who is showing signs of a fever or isn't wearing a mask, it can send an alert, allowing staff to track and quickly locate the individual.
AAEON claims that the system can even accurately identify individuals with an abnormally high body temperature even if they are wearing a mask.
