For three-dimensional (3-D) mapping, so far, 3-D laser scanners and stereo camera systems are used widely due to their high measurement range and accuracy. For stereo camera systems, establishing corresponding point pairs between two images is one crucial step for reconstructing depth information. However, mapping approaches using laser scanners are still restricted by a serious constraint by accurate image registration and mapping. In recent years, time-of-flight (ToF) cameras have been used for mapping tasks in providing high frame rates while preserving a compact size, but lack in measurement precision and robustness. To address the current technological bottleneck, this article presents a 3-D mapping method which employs an RGB-D camera for 3-D data acquisition and then applies the RGB-D features alignment (RGBD-FA) for data registration. Experimental results show the feasibility and robustness of applying the proposed approach for real-time 3-D mapping for large-scale indoor environments.

The presented deep learning and sensor-fusion based assistive technology (Smart Facemask and Thermal scanning kiosk) will protect the individual using auto face-mask detection and auto thermal scanning to detect the current body temperature. Furthermore, the presented system also facilitates a variety of notifications, such as an alarm, if an individual is not wearing a mask and detects thermal temperature beyond the standard body temperature threshold, such as 98.6°F (37°C). Design/methodology/approach—The presented deep Learning and sensor-fusion-based approach can also detect an individual in with or without mask situations and provide appropriate notification to the security personnel by raising the alarm. Moreover, the smart tunnel is also equipped with a thermal sensing unit embedded with a camera, which can detect the real-time body temperature of an individual concerning the prescribed body temperature limits as prescribed by WHO reports. Findings—The investigation results validate the performance evaluation of the presented smart face-mask and thermal scanning mechanism. The presented system can also detect an outsider entering the building with or without mask condition and be aware of the security control room by raising appropriate alarms. Furthermore, the presented smart epidemic tunnel is embedded with an intelligent algorithm that can perform real-time thermal scanning of an individual and store essential information in a cloud platform, such as Google firebase. Thus, the proposed system favors society by saving time and helps in lowering the spread of coronavirus.
