BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Contagious diseases caused due to microorganisms like bacteria, virus, fungi, and the likes are avoided by either killing or by breaking chain of the microorganisms. Breaking chain of such infectious microorganisms prevents transmission of the contagious disease. Social distancing is an effective solution to reduce the transmission of infectious microorganisms and reduce spread of the contagious diseases till a vaccine is developed for those contagious diseases like COVID-19 and other prevailing similar diseases which lacks their vaccine. Concerned organizations have issued guidelines to enable social distancing at workplaces, home, and all other places where public strength is seen. However, implementation of these guidelines is bit challenging. Also, the organization maintains record of infected entities or the entities with early symptoms associated with the contagious diseases. As the record is maintained manually there can be chances of error.
[0004] Existing solutions can have limitations and are not practical for our environment. For example, infrared based solution is unidirectional and unable to differentiate between a human and an object. Other app-based solutions require smart phones with Bluetooth and location settings which can drain battery faster and won’t work in manufacturing units, corporate and educational institutes where smart phones are restricted. Preventive measures should be taken to help and protect entities that they can be safe and protected at their workplace, home, and the other places.
[0005] There is a need to overcome above mentioned problems in prior art by bringing a solution, that aids in identifying early symptoms of the contagious diseases in the entities and alerts the entities to maintain social distance. Also, the solution facilitates maintaining record of the infected entities without manual effort and enables verification of the infected entities through identity verification. The solution facilitates in following proper safety standards to avoid transmission of infectious microorganisms.
