Abstract: An acoustic analysis system includes an acoustic sensor array that receives acoustic signals from a target scene and outputs acoustic data based on the received acoustic signals. A processor receives a plurality of acoustic data sets from the acoustic sensor array, representative of the target scene at different points in time. The processor determines one or more locations within the target scene represented by the plurality of acoustic data sets, each being a location of an acoustic signal emitted from the target scene. For each acoustic signal, the processor classifies the acoustic signal as an intermittent acoustic signal or a continuous acoustic signal, generates accumulated-time acoustic image data based on the plurality of acoustic data sets, and generates an accumulated-time display image for presentation on a display.

Abstract: A system for screening persons' temperatures comprises an imaging device configured to generate imagery data, including infrared image data, of a first scene and a second scene. The system receives imagery data from the first scene, identifies persons in the scene using the imagery data, and determines each person's temperature. The system further compares the persons' temperatures to a threshold and indicates a person should be directed to the second scene if the person's temperature is above a threshold. Subsequently, the system determines and compares the person's temperature in the second scene and provides an indication if the person's temperature exceeds a second threshold. Further, a confidence factor can be associated with determinations of persons' temperatures.
