IPVM is excited to announce the world's first "Fever Cameras" show, to be held this June 2nd and 3rd from 11am to 3pm EDT, giving you a unique opportunity to ask questions and see these systems work (and fail) from the safety of your home.

With recent FDA guidance causing confusion, IPVM will provide the public an opportunity to review these systems live, ask questions to experts, and understand the limitations of thermal imaging.

During the event, IPVM will cover the following:

  • Live testing of systems from: Dahua, FLIR, Hikvision, Sunell, Seek, and ZKTeco.
  • Where systems commonly fail at detection
  • The FDA's role in regulating "fever cameras"
  • Analysis of the latest FDA guidance
  • Review of the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards for thermal image screening
  • Risks for manufacturers selling and marketing these devices

John Honovich, President, IPVM: "While the fever camera market is booming now, IPVM testing shows significant problems with these systems. Businesses and the public should not let the panic of the pandemic and opportunistic salespeople obscure the problems with this technology. Our 'fever cameras' show, testing, and reporting is the world's only resource showing what really does and does not work."
