SINGAPORE: More “smart” thermal scanners for mass screening may soon be deployed across Singapore, helping to minimise congestion at popular venues while providing quick and accurate temperature readings.
The smart thermal scanner, which can work both indoors and outdoors, has an accuracy of between 0.3 and 0.5 degrees Celsius within a 1.5m to 2m range. Since April, GovTech has worked with government agencies to deploy 50 units of SPOTON at various locations including the Supreme Court, Ministry of Education headquarters, Our Tampines Hub, Changi Exhibition Centre community isolation facility, Housing Board branch offices and mosques.Under the licensing agreement for the software, GovTech will provide the SPOTON version 1.0 software for free, and provide training and technical support to the four distributors.
