CCTV cameras to detect body temperature at Charbagh railway station

LUCKNOW: One look at a high-tech camera will decide whether you can enter the railway station or not.
Thermal CCTV cameras based on artificial intelligence were installed at the entrance of Charbagh railway station on Monday to detect and restrict entry of people with high temperature and those not wearing masks.

Two cameras have been installed where passengers queue up for luggage scanning before entering the platform. The CCTV camera with face recognition technology measures body temperature and displays it on the screen.
It also detects if someone is without a mask or not wearing it properly. The personnel supervising the monitor alert the guard on noticing a person with high body temperature or one without mask. “Manual thermal scanners have been replaced with thermal CCTV cameras to make checking fully contactless. This will benefit both employees and passengers,” said senior divisional commercial manager of Northern Railway Lucknow division Jagtosh Shukla.
