A Tool for COVID-safety

INNOVATION

With the second wave of COVID-19 spreading across the country, physical distancing has become more important than ever. To help people practice this necessary precaution two high-school students from Patna—Arpit Kumar, and his brother Abhijeet Kumar, from the Bihar Bal Bhawan Kilkari are doing their bit by developing a unique alert device that measures and alerts the bearer if anyone with a higher than normal body temperature is close by. The device, called Contactless Temperature and Distance Measuring, is as big as a badge and can be pinned on one’s clothes. The brothers developed the innovation, which works on infrared sensitivity, over four months during last year’s lockdown. With the institute’s help, they have registered the device with a government agency and received a patent certification this year.
