Analysis of the influence of external conditions on temperature readings in thermograms and adaptive adjustment of the measured temperature value

Measuring human temperature is a crucial step in preventing the spread of diseases such as COVID-19. For the proper operation of an automatic body temperature measurement system throughout the year, it is necessary to consider outdoor conditions. In this paper, the effect of atmospheric factors on facial temperature readings using infrared thermography is investigated. A thorough analysis of the variation of facial temperature with the prevailing atmospheric conditions was carried out using recordings collected over two years and compared with air temperature values at 1 hour accuracy. A method that takes account of outdoor conditions on temperature readings was proposed. We developed a correction curve with coefficients values based on an analysis of the recordings of people entering the building. Such a method will allow an effective real-time fever screening in public places.
