Vodafone Business Heat Detection Flex

All physical things either radiate or reflect heat, including human skin. Elevated Skin Surface Temperature is an indicator of potential health issues. Where airborne pathogens are prevalent, social distancing protocols make contact or close proximity solutions high risk. Thermal cameras operating from a safe distance are well suited to these scenarios and can be easily deployed.

Vodafone Business Heat Detection Flex is a mobile application developed specifically for use with the Cat® S61 device with an integrated FLIR thermal camera. This app is for use with the Vodafone Business Heat Detection Flex Solution and only works in combination with the Flex dashboard. For full details please contact your Vodafone Business contact.

Rather than taking absolute temperature readings, Heat Detection Flex relies on the camera’s thermal sensitivity to highlight anomalies and temperature differences of as little as 0.1°C, combined with thermal pattern recognition and analysis to identify unusually elevated skin surface temperatures. 

It’s a solution ideally suited to first-line-of-defence triage screening, with individuals showing an elevated surface skin temperature to take the necessary precautions.  Users of Heat Detection Flex should always implement secondary protocols in compliance with local regulation.
