During the COVID era, it has been challenging for organizations and public places to measure and keep records of body temperatures and sanitize people individually. At times, people responsible for these tasks may not perform them properly. This has led to increase in the number of COVID patients at the national level. The proposed device can be set up at entry ways; it can adjust itself to the height of the person approaching, ensuring that the temperature sensor is exactly in front of the face. This will also encourage the person to bring their hands forward for sanitizing. The design was based on contemporary designs, but it uses an upgraded version of these technologies. It encourages individuals to put their hand forward for sanitization and restricts entry if their temperature is more than the specified temperature. The device can automatically measure the temperature and sanitize an individual passing through it. When the person approaches the device, the base sensor senses their presence; then, the belt and gear system gets activated and moves the sensore so that it is placed near the forehead. If the temperature is normal, then the device encourages the individual to put their hand forward for sanitizing.Simulation was done on Tinker CAD online software. The simulation diagram explains the working of the Smart Temperature Monitoring and Automatic Sanitizer Dispenser. The proposed design is efficient and can reduce human intervention. Our device can assist organizations in maintaining COVID protocols, thereby reducing the risk of spread of the virus.
