摘要：With the increase in SARS-CoV-2 infection and keeping in mind its high spreading rate, it has become necessary to get every individual’s temperature checked and accordingly allow them entry. For fulfilling this purpose, all hospitals, malls, shop owners, etc., have employed security guards to check temperature of people manually right at the entry gate and sanitise them thoroughly. As security guards have to come in close proximity of those people to do the checking manually, they have been at high risk of catching the infection.[2][3] In this study, the design, development and benefits of Contactless Temperature Reader and Sanitiser Dispenser(CTRSD) is presented which provides the security guard with real time data of the temperatures being recorded on his phone. Apart from reading the temperature, this system also has a Sanitiser dispensing machine and both these subsystems are controlled by same microcontroller. Temperature Reader uses infrared sensor to give accurate readings and gives aural and visual alerts when temperature rises above the set threshold value i.e., critical body temperature of 38 degree centigrades. CTRSD uses NodeMCU as microcontroller, two IR sensors, an MLX90614 temperature sensor, 3V Buzzer, 6V DC mini submersible pump, and 6V DC input. Pictures and schematic diagrams of the built and tested prototype of the system, and the flowchart on the basis of which the whole system is developed are shown. The Interface, operation and actual working of the system is also described. The final test results shows that CTRSD proves to be efficient and gives satisfactory contribution in monitoring temperature remotely and disinfecting the hands of entrants. The System is envisioned to be a great precautionary measure and can be deployed in various banks, etc. The contactless feature in both the subsystems and the real time records reaching to the supervisor remotely at their convenience ensures a healthy and less prone to disease spreading environment.
