Equipment control. Screening workers to check they're wearing the right personal protective equipment (PPE) for the job — such as face masks, glasses, helmets, safety vests, gloves and boots.

Distance monitoring. Checking that the required distance between employees, or between an employee and a piece of machinery, is being respected.

Lone worker safety. Protecting lone workers by recognising and classifying body movements that may indicate illness or injury, allowing prompt intervention.

Acoustic surveillance. Detecting sounds from security camera microphones, such as alarms or cries for help, to enable timely intervention.

Dangerous situation monitoring. Detecting people inside a predefined exclusion zone; or inside a facility during an emergency evacuation.

Crowd temperature screening. Analysing thermal images of people — even in a group or crowd — to check if anyone has a fever or a body temperature that exceeds a given threshold. This contactless technique lets you separate individuals who may be ill (as indicated by an elevated temperature) from those who are healthy, to help prevent the spread of infection.

Cough detection. The ability to detect people coughing or sneezing — a potential symptom of illness — using security camera microphones is another way to help prevent the spread of infection in addition to skin temperature measurement.
