Since the COVID-19 outbreak, many businesses remain closed. People are afraid to return to offices, to travel, to stay in hotels, and to meet in person. In response, Altoros developed Alarta, a comprehensive safety platform — powered by artificial intelligence, cloud, and mobile technologies — comprising six modules that enforce coronavirus precautions. Designed to help businesses comply with the COVID-19 protocols imposed by the World Health Organization, the system provides innovative tools for resuming operations and enabling transparency of protection procedures. The product safeguards both guests and employees by mass-screening the temperature of individuals, tracing contacts with infected persons, monitoring mask wearing, as well as automating disinfection routines and reports. The platform comprises the following components:

  1. Temperature Screening uses AI-based thermal cameras to scan a flow of individuals and identify those who have fever.
  2. Secondary Check performs recurrent monitoring for potentially infectious persons flagged during temperature screening.
  3. Contact Tracing identifies people who get into contact with infected individuals.
  4. Masks Detection uses AI to detect whether people are wearing face masks and sends out real-time alerts to operators in the case of a violation.
  5. UVC Disinfection consists of smart disinfection stations that eliminate the SARS-CoV-2 virus with ultraviolet light, using motion sensors to switch off and prevent any harm.
  6. Manual Cleaning grants full control and transparency over disinfection, ensuring establishments are safe. With QR codes and mobile schedules, building administrators can manage cleaning routines, while guests can check the real-time status of disinfection before entering a room.

“The platform can serve offices, hotels, factories, and other hospitality or industrial facilities,” said Kirill Artsymenia, Alarta’s Product Manager. “With real-time reports and QR codes, it gives a 360-degree view of disinfection status within a location for everyone in a building, including tourists, workers, and administration.”
