Coronavirus detecting drones under development in Australia澳大利亚正在研制冠状病毒探测无人机A pandemic drone, that monitors temperature, heart and respiratory rates, is being developed to detect the coronavirus.

一种监测体温、心率和呼吸频率的流行病监测无人机正在研制中，以检测冠状病毒。

Fitted with specialised sensors and a computer vision system, the drone can also detect people sneezing or coughing in crowds or indoor places where people congregate, like offices, airports or cruise ships.

这种无人机配备了专门的传感器和计算机视觉系统，还可以在人群中或人们聚集的室内场所(如办公室、机场或游轮)检测到人们打喷嚏或咳嗽。

It's the work of a team from the University of South Australia, led by Defence Chair of Sensor Systems Professor Javaan Chahl, who have partnered with Canadian drone technology company Draganfly.

该工作由来自南澳大利亚大学的一个团队负责，领导人是传感器系统的国防主席javan Chahl教授，他与加拿大无人机技术公司Draganfly合作开发。

Professor Chahl said the technology was originally envisaged for war zones, natural disasters and remotely monitoring heart rates of premature babies in incubators.

Chahl教授说，这项技术最初是为战区、自然灾害和远程监测早产儿的心率而设计的。

"Now we see a need for its use immediately, to help save lives in the biggest health catastrophe the world has experienced in the past 100 years," he said.

他说:现在我们看到有必要立即使用它，以帮助在这场过去100年世界经历的最大健康灾难中拯救生命。

”"It might not detect all cases, but it could be a reliable tool to detect the presence of the disease in a place or in a group of people.

"它可能无法检测出所有的病例，但它可能是一个可靠的工具，可以在一个地方或人群中检测出疾病的存在。

Professor Chahl previously helped develop image-processing technology to detect a human's heart rate from drone video and more recently algorithms to interpret human actions such as sneezing and coughing.

Chahl教授之前帮助开发了图像处理技术，通过无人机视频检测人类的心率，以及最近的算法来解释人类的行为，如打喷嚏和咳嗽。

Draganfly chief Cameron Chell said the technology would be available to government, medical and commercial customers.

德拉甘利首席执行官卡梅伦•切尔表示，这项技术将向政府、医疗和商业客户开放。

"Health and respiratory monitoring will be vital not only for detection but also to understand health trends," Mr Chell said.

切尔表示:健康和呼吸监测不仅对检测至关重要，而且对了解健康趋势也同样重要。
