The technology combines artificial intelligence, machine-learning algorithms and edge-based processing to detect automatically if individuals within a scene are wearing a mask. If a mask is not detected, the system will issue a real-time video alert for immediate response to protect visitors and reduce potential safety violations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our partnership with Rhombus allows us to deliver better value through an open, integrated platform with intelligent security cameras,&#8221; said Kelsey Kerling of LVC, a physical security systems integrator. &#8220;Adding mask detection, at no additional cost, makes Rhombus even more compelling. LVC is committed to helping organisations stay safe and secure. Being able to monitor whether people are wearing masks, and send real-time alerts, will give employees and visitors confidence that the proper safety measures are in place. It&#8217;s great for building, facilities and property managers.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fever-detection cameras have proven to be ineffective due to technology inaccuracies and individuals who are asymptomatic to the virus. Rhombus mask detection provides an alternative by helping organisations maintain safer environments at scale through mask wearing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The addition of mask detection aligns with Rhombus&#8217; mission to create safer, more connected spaces through intelligent building automation. With the platform, organisations can integrate modern video security with a suite of business technology to assist in safer reopening, including particulate matter and air quality monitoring with IP Video&#8217;s Halo smart sensor, controlled building access with Openpath or Kisi, and automated HVAC controls with additional integrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The announcement of mask detection is accompanied by the accelerated business growth in 2020, highlighted by its connected IoT sensors, which include asset tracking, entry monitoring, environment monitoring and motion-sensing capabilities. Additional Covid-19 response features include heat maps, face search and alerts, crowd counting, and maximum occupancy alerts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":26710,"featured_media":8835,"template":"","news-category":[58],"library-tag":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Rhombus security camera spots people not wearing masks - IoT M2M Council<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.iotm2mcouncil.org\/iot-library\/news\/smart-building-construction-news\/rhombus-security-camera-spots-people-not-wearing-masks\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Rhombus security camera spots people not wearing masks - IoT M2M Council\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Cloud-based video security and IoT sensor technology firm Rhombus Systems has developed a smart security camera with integrated mask detection to reduce the spread of Covid-19 and enable safer reopening of buildings during the pandemic. &#8220;Covid-19 has affected the economy and how organisations operate in today&#8217;s world,&#8221; said Garrett Larsson, CEO of California-based Rhombus Systems.
