IOT Thermal & Mask Scan Entry System Flap Barrier

Download Project Document/Synopsis

The first step to detect covid is by scanning for fever. Also we need to monitor every person for a mask. We have temperature checking systems for every entrances for scanning but manual temperature scanning has a lot of disadvantages.

The personnel are not well trained on using temperature scanner devices.
There is human error in reading values.
Many a times people are not barred from entry even after higher temperature readings or no masks.
The scanning is skipped by the personnel if supervisors are not watching.
Manual scanning system is not suitable for large crowds.

To solve this problem we here propose a fully automated temperature scanner and entry provider system. It is a multi purpose system that has a wide range of applications. The system makes use of a contactless temperature scanner and a mask monitor. The scanner is connected directly with a human barrier to bar entry if high temperature or no mask is detected.

Any person will not be provided entry without temperature and mask scan. Only person having both conditions is instantly allowed inside. The system uses temperature sensor and camera connected with a raspberry pi system to control the entire operation.

The camera is used to scan for mask and temperature sensor for forehead temperature. The raspberry processes the sensor inputs and decides weather the person is to be allowed. In this case the system operates a motor to open the barrier allowing the person to enter the premises. If a person is flagged by system for high temperature or no Mask the system glows the red light and bars the person from entry. Also the face and temperature of person is transmitted over IOT to server for authorities to take action and test the person for covid.

Thus the system provides a 100% automated system to prevent the spread of COVID.
