Design of an automatic temperature monitor and face mask detection system.

Abstract

The coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is continuously spreading until now everywhere on the earth, and causing a severe health crisis. So the helpful and safe-keeping method is wearing a face mask in all areas where people are gathered, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Along with the face mask, body temperature and sanitization also plays a vital role in being safer. Thus, monitoring the individuals that are wearing the mask or not is more significant. In this case, we suggested a system that uses color sensor to identify specified color of a mask an individual is wearing. Then the automatic temperature checking is done. Finally, the system gives an arlerm in case of the absence of the required mask or abnormal temperature. Our approach would be beneficial in reducing time wasted on manual labour, the spread of this infectious disease and will encourage people to use face masks and monitoring the temperature can keep the workplace safe.
