面部溫度探測器

Recently Asahi News reported the following:

日産自動車と計測制御機器メーカーのチノー(東京都)が、新型インフルエンザ対策用に、オフィスビルや公共施設などの入場者の体温を約3秒で測る小型機器を共同開発した。日産が車用に開発した熱画像センサー技術を応用。9月の発売から1カ月で、大手企業を中心に約300台が売れ、今年度末までに5千台の販売を目指す。 顔を15センチまで近づけると、体表面の温度を測定。体温が38度以上あれば赤いランプが点滅し、警告音が鳴る。チノーによると、価格は、空港などで使われている体温測定用サーモグラフィー(約100万~500万円)より格安の約30万~40万円だという。

Nissan Motor Co., together with the measurement control equipment making company Chino (Tokyo) had jointly developed a small equipment as a means to deal with the new influenza. It could in three seconds measure the temperature of people visiting office buildings and communal facilities etc. The heat image sensor technology developed by Nissan for the car was applied. When the sales was started in September, about 300 were sold to major companies in one month, and the sales target by the end of the current year was 5,000. When the face was brought close up to 15 centimeters, the temperature of the body surface would be measured. If the temperature was 38-degree or more, a red lamp would blink, and the warning sound would be activated. According to Chino, the price would be about 300,000 to 400,000 yen cheaper than the equipment for measuring body temperature used in airports etc (costing about 1 million to 5 million yen).

After reading the above I think major commercial buildings in Hong Kong could consider installing similar machines to help fighting the next round of influenza.
