TORONTO, July 2, 2020 /CNW/ - Internet of Things
Inc. (TSXV: ITT) (OTC: INOTF) (FRANKFURT: 71T) ("ITT Inc." or the
"Company") www.iotintl.com, a software and solutions
provider in the artificial intelligence and industrial IoT markets,
is pleased to announce that its fever detection system, ThermalPass
www.thermalpass.com was featured on Reuters TV as one of the go-to
thermal body temperature scanners to help economies around the
world start to open up post-COVID-19. The story is titled, "Demand
for thermal devices skyrockets in coronavirus times." Reuter's is
seen and read by over 1 billion people a day and boasts more than
33 million unique monthly visitors.
The report focuses on companies looking to remain open and
protect workers which has sent orders of thermal-based fever
detection systems skyrocketing. The article goes on to say how
ThermalPass is a medical grade touchless sensor body temperature
device that scans the body 20-times per second looking for a
temperature threshold level typically above 98.6 degrees
Fahrenheit.
ThermalPass, developed jointly by AI Labs Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of ITT Inc. and Commersive Solutions Corp, is designed
to enhance public safety by providing fast, touch-free scanning of
multiple people at entranceways of high-traffic, public locations
to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 and other fever-bearing
contagions. Traditional thermal camera solutions come with privacy
issues and are very expensive, costing as much as $15,000 compared to ThermalPass, which provides
more accurate and anonymous readings, starting at $6,900.
"ThermalPass is an innovation inspired out of necessity to help
get this crippled economy back to normal, to get people out of
their houses, to get people in malls, to get people back in the
office in a post-COVID world," said Michael
Lende, president and CEO of ThermalPass' parent company
Internet of Things Inc. "Unlike camera solutions, our touchless
medical grade sensor based ThermalPass does not breech privacy nor
social distancing, as it does not require human intervention, and
is more accurate with 400 temperature readings per second. People
do not have to slow down as they go through ThermalPass."
The global thermal-imaging market is estimated to grow to
$4.6 billion by 2025 from
$3.4 billion this year, according to
research firm Markets and Markets. International airports were the
early adopters, preferring camera-mounted scanners that would not
slow down security checks on passengers.
