Accuracy depends on perspiration, makeup, hair and positioning distance Head covering would need to be removed
Bad
Human intervention required
No data outputs for provable future compliance defense
No data outputs for auxiliary devices

Some models provide data outputs for auxiliary devices
Most use similar infrared sensor principle as FeverWarn
Accuracy depends on exposure to UV sunlight, makeup, facial coverings and distance and resolution of camera
Not recommended for crowd scanning unless very high resolution camera, should primarily be used for individual scanning as with FeverWarn.
Bad
Typically require separately sold computer interface not included
Privacy concerns
How FeverWarn Works
Breakthrough Technology
It’s All In The Fist
The wrist and fist areas are ideal for infrared scanning because the arterial blood flow is close to the skin. Generally this area does not have scanning complications of other IR technologies like forehead scans where perspiration, hair, or make-up can interfere
FeverWarn is a self-service scanning with reliable results in one second or less!
Simply place your fist under the scanner (1-4 inches away), and you’ll get either a red or green light indicator (note: the 300- model provides an voice activated announcement in addition to the light signal)
The Science of Fist-Forward Temperature Monitoring
University studies report the fist/wrist as one of the most reliable areas for temperature scanning Many people are familiar with infrared (IR) skin temperature devices being used to monitor forehead skin temperature. But due to different heights, heavy perspiration of the forehead area, hair, makeup, and other facial coverings, the readings can be compromised and often require secondary scans. In fact, infrared skin temperature can be taken in many places on the human body, especially those regions where arterial blood flow is present. Still, some areas, including the fist, are best to correlate with mean body temperature (MBT), which is used to measure fever. Another reason the fist/wrist area was selected as an optimal temperature monitoring is because people can easily manipulate their arm/hand and scan themselves. In contrast, people of different heights would require multiple scanners to achieve the same results with a forehead scanner. Besides, research and even warnings
by manufacturers of forehead scanners have established that their readings can be compromised by forehead perspiration, makeup, hair, and other coverings. Longer range thermal infrared imaging systems are also available on the market. Still, they are expensive, and a high-resolution camera is necessary to direct the image to the correct facial areas. Also, infrared imaging cannot be used outdoors due to the interference of the sunlight’s infared rays which, will impact the results.

FAQs
WHY do we need temperature scanning at our schools?
Temperature Scanning, or Thermal Scanning has been recognized as a key indicator of early warning of the virus. Having thermal scanning devices at the entrance/exits of your school (manufacturing plant) provides a level of protection and comfort in knowing that anyone whose reading indicates a higher than normal temperature will not be allowed to enter the building.
Are there specific guidelines for re-opening schools that include some type of temperature monitoring as a first-line defense?
The CDC has provided general guidelines to the Dept of education that includes a recommendation to integrate temperature monitoring as part of an overall prevention strategy. As a first line of protection, and in concert with other safety precautions such as wearing masks and social distancing, thermal scanning should be strongly considered in any precaution planning.
How Does FeverWarn compare with other current temperature monitoring devices?
There are multiple benefits the FeverWarn application has over two other current approaches. Unlike hand-held scanner that require a person to stand there all day and take readings, FeverWarn uses the fist as the key indicator for temperature readings. Studies have shown that this is the most stable and accurate part of the body for this type of scanning. Hand-held scanners to the forehead have several issues that can affect an accurate reading. Perspiration, hair in the way, proper social distancing, and even make-up can negatively influence an accurate reading.
The other scanner is a fixed position scanner that requires the person to stand up taller, squat down lower to get in the range of the scan, and then hold that position for several seconds until it registers. This scanner also has to take into account the same issues as the hand-held scanner in regards to perspiration, hair in the way, social distancing and make-up.
Protect Your Teachers, Service Employees, and Visitors
One of your schools’ most valuable assets is your teachers and support staff. Knowing they are coming to work in an environment that is as safe as possible takes away stress. It builds confidence allowing them to perform their jobs in safer surroundings without health-concern distractions. Visitors will also appreciate the precautions taken to ensure that safety-first is a large part of your stand against the virus.
