“…to prevent the increase in infections. The measurement can be carried out on the forehead or on the part of the wrist and they show normal temperatures that range between 36.1°C and 37.2°C (degrees Celsius) [22], it should be noted that outside the establishments the measurement of body temperature, so people are not aware of this valuable information.…”

Abstract— The problem that the world is currently facing and that has claimed more than 3.2 million lives worldwide is COVID-19. Being a highly contagious disease, the WHO recommended limiting the movement of people out of their residence. Given this, Peru took the necessary measures to control the spread of this virus, therefore, the government decreed a general quarantine in the country, which from March 6th to May 9th, 2020, had reported the death of 1814 people in the country, because the health system at the national level was not prepared for such magnitude, in addition to that the number of infections continued to grow since they do not respect social distancing. In view of this problem, this article will design a thermal image processing system to detect possible cases of patients with COVID-19, in such a way that it allows companies or institutions to know the body temperature of each person, and thus know they are possibly COVID-19 patients. Through the design of this system, it will be possible to measure body temperature with the drone and the thermal camera at 50 cm from the person, in such a way that if the person has a body temperature higher than 38°C it could be infected with COVID-19. Therefore, the implementation of this system will help reduce the number of infections within an institution or workplace. Keywords-- Thermal camera, COVID-19, Drone, MATLAB, Image.

“…The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention considers a person to have a fever when their temperature is 38°C or higher. It can also be determined that people who feel hot or who have a history may have a fever [22], it is a factor to take into account.…”

“…The range where a normal temperature is considered is between 36.1 °C to 39.1 °C [25], that is why the present system will work in a temperature range of 15 °C to 40 °C, thus as shown in Figure 13, because according to the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention it considers that a person has a fever if their body temperature is above 40 °C [25].…”

COVID-19 does not show signs of having disappeared, being a very contagious disease, the WHO recommended limiting the free movement of people, since from its appearance until May 1st, 2021, it caused the death of more than 3.2 million of people around the world. In Peru, it economically affected those people who generated income every day to survive, for this reason some activities were reactivated complying with the biosafety measures that are the use of mandatory mask and social distancing (more than 1 meter). Taking body temperature with an infrared thermometer is an optional measure, generating rejection by specialists, indicating that there is little evidence of its sensitivity and specificity and of its doubtful ability to detect fever. In view of this problem, this article will implement a thermal image processing system to detect possible cases of patients with COVID-19, in such a way that the system performs a more accurate measurement of body temperature, and it can be implemented in any place where such measurement is intended, helping to combat the spread of the virus that currently continues to affect many people. The system has a more accurate measurement of body temperature with an efficiency of 95% at 1 meter between the drone and the person, in such a way that if it presents a body temperature higher than 40°C it could be infected with COVID-19
