Abstract/Summary

Contact tracing is a key point for curbing the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and reducing COVID-19-associated mortality. In the Philippines, prior entering establishments, individuals are required to have their temperature measurements measured and log their names in contact tracing forms.

This study integrates a contact tracing information system and an automated thermal scanner using MLX 90614. The study includes three major components – a database and web server, a web application and an IoT device. The IoT device runs on Raspberry Pi 4B which includes an MLX90614 for thermal measurement and a Rapsberry Pi Camera V2.1 for QR code validation.
