The present disclosure discusses various systems and methods for screening individuals for an elevated skin temperature, including substantially reducing the footprint of conventional thermal imaging system. The footprint of the currently available thermal imaging system is reduced in part because rather than having a blackbody and a person being screened simultaneously located within the thermal camera's field of view, the present disclosure discusses a unique thermal imaging system that provides a reference temperature to the system for subsequent comparison to the thermal camera, using a blackbody, prior to the thermal scanning and imaging the person.

A method and an apparatus for determining the heating state of an optical element in a microlithographic optical system involves at least one contactless sensor which is based on the reception of electromagnetic radiation from the optical element. The radiation range captured by the sensor is varied for the purposes of ascertaining a temperature distribution in the optical element.

Disclosed is an error correction unit enabling constant accurate measurement of a moving object by correcting an error attributable to a change in sensitivity of a thermal image sensor, a change in distance between a thermal image sensor and an object, or an ambient environment. Further disclosed is an object temperature detection device equipped with the same. The error correction unit includes a first arm member rotatably coupled to a thermal imaging camera unit, a heating element holder rotatably coupled to the first arm member, the heating element fixed to the heating element holder, and a temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of the heating element. The heating element is positioned within an angle of view of the thermal imaging camera unit through rotational motion of the first arm member and the heating element holder. The temperature sensor measures the temperature of the heating element at a first time and a second time different from the first time so that the controller can use a temperature change value of the heating element. Data of the temperatures of the heating element, which are measured respectively at the first time and the second time, are transmitted to the controller.
