Innovative product for premise safety from Covid 19: NeelKavach Kiosk

Abstract

The world is going through a very tough time due to the pandemic, and people are only leaving their houses if it’s unavoidable. As the lockdown restrictions begin to ease slowly, wearing masks, sanitization and social distancing has become a priority. Safety workers are putting their lives on the line to ensure the safety of the citizens. This paper presents a product in the form of an automated kiosk that aims to reduce the load on the safety workers, while efficiently screening people entering any premises. The kiosk was deployed in a real commercial environment, and thousands of people have used it. The goal of the research paper is to answer this research question - What can be the best solution in this situation in order to safeguard the premises?
