Infra-red sensors keep SARS virus in check
A
Land Instruments International product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
May 5, 2003
Following the need to restrict the spread of the SARS virus, Land Instruments International has produced a human body temperature monitoring system.
Following the need to restrict the spread of the SARS virus, Land Instruments International has produced a human body temperature monitoring system based around two new miniature, online thermal imaging camera systems - the FTI Mini and FTI Mv.
These imagers use the latest uncooled Microbolometer detector technology with a unique combination of high performance, ruggedness, small size and affordable price.
The FTI Mini and Mv are complemented by a human body temperature monitoring software system, the latest of Land's successful range of thermal image processing software.
The powerful combination of the FTI Mini or Mv and image processing software is intended to assist in preventing the spread of this highly contagious virus.
The system has the added benefit of using a certified temperature calibration source to provide a level of accuracy unparalleled by existing thermal imaging equipment.
Although the UK Government and Department of Health are currently playing down the threat of the SARS virus, the Dronfield based company and its subsidiary offices around the world have been overwhelmed by the level of interest in its range of thermal imaging products.
Interest expressed so far has been received from countries including: Canada, China, France, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Morocco, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates.

Other Land Instruments International stories
-
Thermal imaging systems offer high reliability
Each FTI-E system has an industrial processor that provides local process control, configuration and process visualisation -
Sampler provides continuous emissions monitoring
The heated filter, sample drier and combined filter/drier of the Unicorn flue gas sampler can be installed in different configurations to suit any analyser. -
Infra-red thermometer suits furnace use
Measurement data can be stored on the optional DL-1000 data logger, or on a Bluetooth-enabled iPAQ, PC or laptop. -
Thermal imager monitors machinery
The FTI Mv thermal imager can be linked with vision analysis software such as LabView with IMAQ to create a sophisticated process monitoring system. -
Thermal imager captures two images simultaneously
The TP8 thermal imager from Land Instruments International offers Bluetooth voice recording technology and a detector resolution 45% higher than the standard 320 x 240 pixels.
