COVID-19 Temperature Scanner: A Design Solution

I have noticed that the students in school often begin to line up in front of the temperature scanner, as it sometimes takes too long for the technology to scan our faces. Although our school has one of the best technologies, there is still some delay and traffic when performing this task. This made me think about the lower quality scanners that take much longer to scan and thus cause huge queues in the BTS, outside malls, and other republic areas with small entrances.


To solve this problem, I designed a product that allows vital health data to be self-checked and stored efficiently and distributed wherever necessary. By storing information in this easy-to-transport device, consumers can waste less time and become more efficient in a post pandemic world.



These are just some sketches of the aesthetics of the product – something small and easy to carry, as it's essential for users to be able to keep the self scanner on them all the time.



However, for this product to work, there has to be a change in the environment of its function to ensure that it works effectively and efficiently.



The sketches demonstrate how the product is easy to travel with and the various ways we can use it in our real lives. Placing a scanner around the busiest areas in a city can allow the user to scan their health information while simultaneously entering a crowded place.


To appeal to multiple different markets, the product is easily customisable. Complementary goods like cases/sleeves can be sold not only for protection but also aesthetic.


I also drew a CAD model to visualize what the product would look like in real life for one of the designs.
