How to Practice Physical Distancing
People counters, distance measurement, and contact tracing tools in manufacturing and public-facing spaces...these methods are new to every manufacturer, but are quickly becoming the new normal as times continue to change to adapt to the ever-changing manufacturing environment we are currently experiencing.
Physical Distancing
In the wake of a global pandemic, a focus on keeping people safe and healthy has never been more important.
Health professionals agree that two things that help spread viruses like COVID-19 are monitoring the number of people in one location and keeping a six-foot physical distance from others. In many settings, this is hard to accomplish and enforce using manual processes.
Because of this, SICK has reacted to the new developments to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus with three different types of technology that helps people practice physical distancing in a manufacturing setting and also in public-facing spaces.
PeopleCounter – Monitoring Occupancy Levels
SICK is reacting to new developments to slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus with its new PeopleCounter SensorApp. Using 3D LiDAR sensors from SICK, businesses can maintain recommended occupancy levels in public spaces by counting the number of people the enter and exit the space.
Since the sensor solution does not process personal information, companies can ensure occupancy restrictions are being observed, but also that private individuals’ data privacy concerns are being respected. Operators of institutions of public life as well as those that deal in tourism, cruise ships, restaurants, retail, and various other industries can profit from a simple solution that makes it easy to keep the maximum utilization of space and still maintain the necessary distance between people in view
