The purpose of this research is to conduct aerodynamics study and design a hybrid drone system of fixed-wing and multi-copter. The mission of this drone is to measure human body temperature during COVID19 pandemic. The specific aim of the drone is to fly and cover larger industrial areas roughly about 50 km2 with longer flying time than the conventional drone, of about 1.5 hours. The applications of the simulation software such as XFLR5 and ANSYS have a big impact in identifying areas that need to be improved for the drone system. XFLR5 software was used to compare the characteristics of different airfoils with highest lift over drag, L/D ratio. Based on the airfoil selection, it was found that NACA 4412 airfoil produces the highest L/D ratio. The detailed geometry of the drone system includes a fuselage length of 1.9 meters and wingspan of 2 meters. Moreover, 10 sheets of solar panels were placed along the wing for sustainable flight operation to cover wider areas of mission. The structural analysis was done on ANSYS to test the elastic stress, equivalent strain, deformation, factor of safety pressure as well as lift and drag forces under various operational conditions and payloads. The landing gear was analyzed for harsh landing. ANSYS Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) was utilized to study the aerodynamics of the drone at different parameters such as the velocities and angles of attack during the operation. This design ensures the stability of the drone during the temperature measurement phase. The best thermal-imaging camera for such purpose would be the Vue Pro R 336, 45° radiometric drone thermal camera with a resolution of 640 x 512 pixels. This camera has the advantage of a permanent continuous out focus that give the ability of taking measurements even if there was changing on the altitude or any kind of vibrations.

With the development of medical technology, medical ultrasound technology is widely used in the diagnosis of human diseases. It has become an indispensable diagnostic method in modern clinical medicine by detecting the internal physiology or tissue structure of the human body by ultrasound and then discovering diseases. Based on this, this paper designs a medical ultrasonic remote control software based on sensor design. The system software communicates with the stimulator through the Bluetooth port of the mobile phone and can send the parameter information input by the mobile phone to the field-programmable gate array of the stimulator for compilation. The upper computer control interface with a remote communication function is written by Lab VIEW software. A socket is used to establish inter-network process connection, and medical ultrasonic equipment simulates hardware key input according to the received control instructions so as to achieve the purpose of remote control. Experiments show that, compared with other systems, the infrared human body temperature measurement system with the functions of environmental temperature compensation and distance compensation can effectively reduce the influence of environmental temperature, distance, and other factors and has the advantages of non-contact, low power consumption, fast response speed, high sensitivity, and high accuracy, which is suitable for rapid and accurate human body temperature measurement in crowded places with large traffic.

Body temperature measurement is one of the basic medical measurement and including one of the vital sign measurement.Human body temperature always changing as adaptation of the condition. Fever is a condition which is human body temperature is above the temperature at normal condition. Until now, fever still debated it is something good or a harm for human body.

<span lang="EN-US">The recent advances in electronics and microelectronics devices allow the development of newly low-cost monitoring tools used by peoples for health preventive purposes. Sensors used in medical equipments convert various forms of human body vital signs into electrical signals. Therefore, the healthcare monitoring systems considering non-invasive and wearable sensors with integrated communication mediums allow an efficient solution to live a comfortable home life.  This paper presents the remote monitoring of human body temperature (HBT) wirelessly by means of Arduino controller with different sensors and open source internet connection. The proposed monitoring system uses an internet network via wireless fieldity (wifi) connection to be linked with online portal on smart phone or computer. The proposed system is comprised of an Arduino controller, LM-35 (S1), MLX-90614 (S2) temperature sensors and ESP-wifi shield module. The obtained result has shown that real time temperature monitoring data can be transferred to authentic observer by utilizing internet of things (IoT) applications. The findings from this research indicates that the difference of average temperature in between Sensor S1 and S2 is about 15 <sup>0</sup>C</span>

This paper discusses the design and construction of a human body resistance and temperature measurement device. The device measures the human body temperature and resistance when the sensing probes are placed in contact with the human skin. The design analysis was based on simple electronic circuit theories leading to specification and choice of components used for the construction of the system. After the construction and testing with various individuals the human body resistance and temperature was found to be within the ranges of 1KΩ to 210KΩ and 36.10C to 37.50C respectively. The paper discuses the various effect of current on the human body and their implication. The system can be adapted to various fields such as bio-technology, security (lie detector), safety equipment in industries and companies to determine insulation.

The design and working of Contactless Human Body Temperature and Sanitization is presented in this study. The system is intended to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 infection and assist in maintaining and/or improving community health and reducing the negative impact of the infection on the economy and society. We have used Proteus Design Suit & Arduino IDE software platform with simulating & programming the product algorithm and we are using Arduino Uno, MLX90614 sensor, Ultrasonic Sensors, IR Sensor , Buzzer and DC motor. The objectives of this work is to have a system consisting two sub-systems, the temperature sensor and the sanitizer sprayer, which is controlled from a common microcontroller and by design, can operate simultaneously. The design and development of the system go through the following methodology: System Specification, Literature Survey, Control System Design, Hardware Prototype Development, Results. Based on data obtained from tests made on the built prototype, a reiteration of the above steps is carried out where the control system (software logic) and parameters are adjusted so that they meet the specified performance for the system. The final test results are recorded and it does the temperature monitoring and on disinfecting the hands as expected. Photos of the Schematic and the prototype model ,and the flowchart on which the Arduino script is developed are shown. The non-contact sensor feature for both the recording of body temperature and the spraying of sanitizer provided by our model precludes the possible viral transmission from using traditional thermometers, readers handheld IR thermometer operators and avoids transmission between person to person.

Coronavirus disease (covid-19) is a global pandemic, and every country is actively fighting against the virus. It is an effective way to prevent the spread of the virus in finding the person with abnormal temperature promptly to perform the further medical observation. However, the traditional method of temperature measurement has low efficiency and accuracy. Body temperature acting as important role in medicine, several diseases is characterized by a change in human body temperature. Monitoring body temperature also allows the doctor to track the effectiveness of treatments. But current continuous body temperature measurement system is mainly limited by reaction time, movement noise, and labour requirement. In addition, the traditional contact body temperature measurement has the problem of wasting consumables and causing discomfort. To address the above issues, we present a non contact, automatic system using a single thermal non-contact sensor. The Proposed Covid prevention method scans body temperature through MLX9014 Contactless Temperature Sensor and sends the data to Raspberry pi model 3+ architecture. Our application takes data from MLX9014 and analyzes it to see whether the temperature is greater than 370 Celsius , which then captures the image through pi camera.
