Description — Screening station

(Auto and Button mode)

11

This chapter describes a screening station for Auto mode or Button mode screening.

11.1

Overview

The screening station consists of a FLIR Exx-EST thermal camera, a clearly defined
screening position, and a queueing system.

The thermal camera measures the temperature around the tear duct of the screened per-
son, analyzes the measured temperature, and displays a screening result.

For improved measurement accuracy, it is important that the screened person is at the
correct distance from the camera. The screening position indicates where the person
should stand for the screening.

For an efficient screening flow, a queueing system is needed to guide the visitors into the
screening station, to the correct screening position, and out of the screening station. A
backdrop may be needed to prevent background disturbances from reaching the camera.

11.2
