Technology Approaches for Cruise Ship Disease Propagation Monitoring
摘要
In this chapter, possible sensor applications for symptom and contagion detection are described. For symptom detection, the most recent contagious outbreaks were considered, namely Norovirus, Covid-19, and Influenza. Possible measurable indicators were explored as well as the available approaches to accurately measure them. For contagion control, different approaches are proposed that range from real-time location systems to mobile phone contact tracking. The particular conditions for locating a person inside a cruise ship raise additional obstacles taken into account when searching for possible solutions.
