Konica Minolta Business Solutions, a Multiple ‘ASTORS’ Award Winner in the 2019, 2018 and a 2017 ‘ASTORS’ Homeland Security Awards Programs, is pleased to announce the Mobotix Thermal Screening Station has been nominated to compete in the 2020 ‘ASTORS’ Awards.
Mobotix’s thermal radiometry imaging technology measures infrared energy quickly and
efficiently, for an all-in-one system that comes with everything you need to establish a front-line screening process to identify elevated body temperatures, a significant symptom of COVID-19.
(More and more companies, authorities and institutions use MOBOTIX thermal technology as a proactive warning system.

Visitors and employees face the camera and to allow for the inner canthus eye screening, the most accurate point for surface temperature in thermal radiometry, while an operator can view the thermal image on the screen.
Screen alerts in red will identify those screening out of your prescribed range who may need additional temperature testing.
The Mobotix thermal screening images differentiate between hot objects and face objects, and thumbnail images with temperature data are saved on the local dashboard with clear green or red indicators of pass or fail.
Along with the thermal screening is an optional Mass Text Alert Notification with Video Management System.
For network text alerts to key members of the security and auditing team, additional auditing/reporting and case management, we have an optional video management solution (VMS): MxMSP™/MxLINQ™.
This VMS enables remote business managers to review and analyze an entire company or organization’s screening information aggregating information from all of the cameras in place.
The Mobotix Thermal Screening Station in Hackensack University Medical Center is used to temperature check everyone entering the hospital as a precaution to detect potential signs of COVID-19 in order to stop the spread of this deadly disease.
The Mobotix Thermal Screening Solution includes:
-
MOBOTIX M16 thermal camera (mounts to the top of the station)
-
6MP optical color sensor
-
High-quality, medical grade, portable station with desk (includes a storage area for laptop)
-
Powerful laptop with keyboard and mouse
-
Convenient holder for disinfecting wipes
-
Screening solution software
-

Konica Minolta’s Intelligent Security Solutions team enables organizations to use reliable, German-made devices that are reliable and secure.
