Volunteers help build automated, no-contact temperature scanner

Singapore

OVER 400 volunteers have signed up in response to a Government Technology Agency (GovTech) bid to help build a self-help temperature-scanning system that will be deployed to government buildings and community facilities nationwide in the coming weeks.

As the agency tasked with digital transformation of the public sector, GovTech has developed a few practical solutions to help ease lines at temperature checking and registration facilities across the city-state. The self-help scanner is one of its newer innovations.
