  • Publication number: 20230404408
    Abstract: A mirror system includes a mirror that reflects the user. An infrared camera serving as a temperature detection unit detects the body surface temperature of the user located around the mirror. A body temperature estimation unit estimates the body temperature of the user based on the body surface temperature. When the body temperature of the user is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature, a notification unit makes a notification of high body temperature warning information indicating that the body temperature of the user is equal to or higher than the predetermined temperature.
