FLIR Elara FR-345-EST Thermal Screening Camera

FLIR Elara FR-345-EST Thermal Screening Camera

The FLIR Elara FR-345-EST Thermal Screening Camera is a fixed-mount, exceptionally intelligent system for detecting elevated skin temperatures. Equipped with cutting-edge intuitive facial detection technology and a 20Hz thermal frame rate, security personnel may maintain a safe distance whilst simultaneously collecting fast and accurate skin temperature measurements. This radiometric camera with a temperature range of 15˚C to 45˚C, Field of View (FOV) of 45˚ x 34˚ and accuracy of ±0.5% is built specifically for entry control points dealing with medium to high levels of foot traffic.

The smart software of the FR-345-EST not only offers interactive positioning guidance but also prompts individuals to remove eyewear when necessary. Automatically locating and measuring the inner canthus (corner of the eye - see below) within one second, an instant pass/fail graphic is then shown to the operator. This high-throughput non-contact screening system is available in both portrait and landscape modes for installation flexibility. The FLIR Elara model includes onboard CNN-based analytics, an adaptive alarm threshold to aid in minimising false alarms, automatic calibration and self-screen operation for swift feedback.

Offering a seamless user experience through all major VMS platforms, the FLIR Elara FR-345-EST streamlines workflow and critical decision-making. With a fully integrated setup and operation available with FLIR United VMS or a third-party VMS, this system features digital I/O support for complete access control integration. Notably, the IP54-rated FLIR Elara Thermal Screening Camera does not require or save sensitive personal information when in use.

Canthus Measurement

The canthus is the inner or outer corner of the eye, specifically where the upper and lower lids meet. The skin at the canthus is extremely thin which in turn decreases insulating effects, is far less exposed to environmental temperature changes and is positioned directly above major arteries for increasing blood flow & heat transfer. While the forehead may of course be considerably easier to quickly screen, it is demonstrably more susceptible to interference by ambient heat sources ultimately resulting in an increased amount of measurement errors. The canthus provides a much more reliable and accurate reading of the actual core body temperature.
