How To Configure Temperature Screening

DS-2TDxxxxB-xx/Px Thermographic Camera with Blackbody

General Parameters

• Temperature Measurement Range

86°ꟷ113° F (30.0°ꟷ45.0° C)

• Temperature Measurement Accuracy

±0.3° C

• Camera Resolution and Focal Length

DS-2TD1217B-3/PA: Thermal: 160 × 120, Optical: 2688 × 1520, 3 mm

DS-2TD2617B-6/PA: Thermal: 160 × 120, Optical: 2688 × 1520, 6 mm

DS-2TD2636B-13/P: Thermal: 384 × 288, Optical: 2688 × 1520, 13 mm

• AI Face Detection

Multiple targets (up to 30) skin-surface temperature detections at the same time
(wearing masks does not affect this detection)

NOTE: The Face Detection feature does not identify individuals, but is used only to

target the facial area of human subjects for temperature readings.

• Operating Environment

A stable indoor environment without wind or direct sunlight

Working temperature: 50°ꟷ95° F (10°ꟷ35° C)

Installation

• Installation Cautions

The performance of this temperature-screening scheme is greatly affected by the
environment. This scheme applies only to indoor environments or scenarios with calm
air and consistent temperature. Besides, the relative installation location of devices and
the ambient light (too bright or too dark) greatly affect face detection accuracy. In order
to improve measurement accuracy and reach better human face detection
performance, the installation environment has to meet certain requirements:

- Select installation environments with one-direction path to ensure that cameras

capture the full faces of all passing persons.

- Select installation environments with stable and sufficient lighting conditions.

Supplementary light is required under backlight or insufficient lighting conditions to
ensure the clear visibility of facial features.

- Select indoor environments with calm air and consistent temperature. Outdoor

environments with rapid temperature changes are not recommended.

- If this scheme is used in entrance scenes that connect indoor and outdoor

environments, it is suggested that the installation location should be kept at a certain
distance from the entrance (such as customs or security checkpoints). Persons
coming in from outdoors should stay indoors for more than five minutes before the
measurement. In these ways, the influence of the outdoor temperature on
measured body surface temperature could be reduced.

- Avoid objects with high or low temperature placed in the scene.

- The devices should be installed firmly, thereby avoiding face detection and

temperature measurement errors caused by shaking.

• Camera Installation

The camera should be set right in front of the one-direction path, capturing the full
faces of passing persons. The installation height and the distance between the camera

and measured objects is dependent on the resolution and focal length of thermographic
camera, as shown in the following table.

flexible or fixed placement, but these items require additional purchase. Only
devices with resolution of 384*288 are recommended to be installed on the wall.

• Blackbody Installation

Installation Location

The recommended distance between the camera and the blackbody is in the above
table. The blackbody is recommended to be installed at a height of 1.7m, with an

elevation angle of within 15°. Ensure that the black body appears in the upper left /
upper right corner of the camera view. Make sure that the blackbody would not be
blocked by any other target during temperature measurement
