An integrated system comprising of AI, Thermal scanning through cameras and RFID reader, the system records at high speed with unmatched accuracy, the temperature of associates, and also maintains an automatic daily record of the temperature of every person entering and exiting the premises.
(b) AI Algorithms running on Surveillance CCTV cameras to monitor and Control human behavior. Using state of art AI software, the system alerts administrators and provides them a dashboard when Social Distancing norms are not met or if an employee is not wearing a Face Mask.
