Costain, the smart infrastructure solutions company, has been working to tailor advanced capabilities in intelligent camera solutions and control room technology to support airports and airlines in COVID-19 detection. Keeping passengers and employees safe as well as providing assurance to authorities that will enable people to fly again, are immediate challenges that proven thermal imaging solutions can help solve.
Today we can deploy proven thermal imaging solutions that can remotely detect body temperature to +/- 0.3 degrees at a range of five metres, whilst people move through an airport. Early detection at points of entry into airports and terminals followed by appropriate intervention, can help minimise transmission to other passengers and staff, offering benefits over gate room and pre-boarding checks. Discrete remote monitoring of passengers in transit also reduces disruption to flow continuity where handheld, forehead temperature monitoring checks have the potential to more negatively impact flow and therefore passenger experience.
Our virtual demonstration of the technology can be found here.
We are ready to support clients make the right decisions on solutions, systems and technology that they need imminently to rigorously manage public and employee health when flight schedules resume worldwide. We also understand that whilst investment at this time is difficult, systems and technologies can be expanded and enhanced in future to meet wider business requirements. For example, our initial thermal imaging solution provides the capability for future developments to detect passengers with reduced mobility (PRM), family groups, and large parties, informing decisions by operations teams and potentially improving passenger experience. The ability to successfully implement such enhancements and create higher returns on initial investment later, are dependent on selecting the most appropriate base system now. We are here to help you make that choice.
More information on the immediately available base solution is attached.
