Hot or Not was, famously, the name of an early Zuckerberg venture that lead, eventualy, to Facebook (Russian troll or not). These days it's also the mantra of some officials screening for COVID-19, as with this special helmet being used to scan football (but not really football) crowds in England.
“In short, the helmet uses sophisticated infrared camera technology,” says Dr Guo, “The smart helmet visor’s thermo-scan sensors show the temperature of people within a five-metre radius, as we know that a high temperature can be a symptom of someone who is COVID-positive. It also has the potential to connect with other data on COVID-19 track and tracing apps.”
And so we have one more way to keep track of you, Earthlings; do not imagine you will ever escape.
