Abstract: Various techniques are disclosed to provide for improved human body temperature detection using thermal images of an inner canthus. In one example, a method includes capturing a thermal image of a human being using a thermal imager. The method also includes determining an uncompensated temperature measurement associated with an inner canthus of a face of the human being using corresponding pixels of the thermal image. The method also includes determining a correction term as a function of a distance between the thermal imager and the human being. The method also includes applying the correction term to the uncompensated temperature measurement to provide a corrected temperature measurement associated with the inner canthus to compensate for attenuation associated with the distance. Additional methods and systems are also provided.

In one example, a method includes capturing a thermal image of a human being using a thermal imager. The method also includes detecting a face and an inner canthus of the human being in the thermal image using an artificial neural network. The method also includes determining a temperature measurement of the inner canthus using corresponding pixels of the thermal image. The method also includes determining a body temperature of the human being using the temperature measurement. Additional methods and systems are also provided.
