System and method for video analytics for thermography procedure compliance

A video analytics system for determining compliance with a thermographic compliance protocol for a subject, the system comprising an electronic processing device, communicatively coupled to one or more surveillance cameras, configured to:

• assign, in an electronic memory, an identifier to a subject when detecting the subject;
• access an electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol for ensuring accurate measurement of subject temperatures, the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol identifying one or more thermographic measurement wait times corresponding to one or more subject factors indicating non-compliance with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol;
• determine, via applied video analytics of video captured of the subject via the at least one surveillance camera, if the subject is compliant or non-compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol based on one or more detected subject factors determined via the applied video analytics;
• when the electronic processing device determines that the subject is compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, substantially immediately cause a temperature of the subject to be electronically measured and electronically stored;
• and
• when the electronic processing device determines that the subject is non-compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, determine a thermographic measurement wait time based on (i) the one or more detected subject factors and (ii) the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, delay causing the temperature of the subject to be measured for the predetermined thermographic measurement wait time, and after the determined thermographic measurement wait time, cause the temperature of the subject to be electronically measured and electronically stored.

A non-transient computer readable medium storing program instructions for causing a computer to perform a first set of functions, the first set of functions comprising:

• assigning, in an electronic memory of the computer, an identifier to a subject when detecting the subject;
• accessing an electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol for ensuring accurate measurement of subject temperatures, the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol identifying one or more thermographic measurement wait times corresponding to one or more subject factors indicating non-compliance with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol;
• determining, via applied video analytics of video captured of the subject via the at least one surveillance camera, if the subject is compliant or non-compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol based on one or more detected subject factors determined via the applied video analytics;
• when the computer determines that the subject is compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, substantially immediately causing a temperature of the subject to be electronically measured and electronically stored;
• and
• when the computer determines that the subject is non-compliant with the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, determining a thermographic measurement wait time based on (i) the one or more detected subject factors and (ii) the electronically stored pre-thermographic measurement compliance protocol, delaying causing the temperature of the subject to be measured for the determined thermographic measurement wait time, and after the determined thermographic measurement wait time, causing the temperature of the subject to be electronically measured and electronically stored.
