Robot Can Detect If People Are Wearing Masks

September 15, 2020 by Staff

(Fox5NewYork) A human-like robot called Pepper can now detect whether people are wearing a mask to help stop the spread of COVID-19.

Pepper uses cameras to scan the faces of up to 5 people in a group, simultaneously,  in order to check if they are wearing a mask.

During the interaction, Pepper displays a green or red circle around the face on its tablet depending on whether the person is wearing a mask or not.

Partners and developers can add other features such as voice interaction to warn people that they are required to wear a mask.  It can also alert businesses that people are not wearing masks.
