Disease detection
Armstrong Optical Ltd.Request Info
A sensing system for the detection of infectious
diseases, such as SARS and the avian influenza, has been introduced by Armstrong
Optical Ltd. Designed to inspect moving crowds of people for those with fever
symptoms, the IR230 consists of a high-resolution visible camera, image processing
software and an uncooled focal plane array detector with a temperature sensitivity
of <0.1 °C. It can take images and make temperature measurements from as
far away as 50 to 100 m. A cursor tracks the object with the highest temperature
in the field of view. Thermal and visible images are shown on a screen simultaneously.
