Abstract :
Currently, the tools used for measuring body temperature are often encountered,
namely where in the process of checking temperatures like this there are obstacles or
problems that occur, namely officers must be close to objects or people, which may
increase the risk of being infected with the Covid 19 virus and will cause an increase
in cases. the higher it is. Measurement of body temperature can be the basis for
determining a person's level of health where increasing body temperature can be a
temporary reference to find out whether a person is experiencing early symptoms of a
disease. The purpose of this research is to make a non-contact body temperature
detector based on Internet of Things (IoT) which will get temperature data in real time
using the MLX90614 sensor as a temperature detector, Arduino as a microcontroller
and the detected temperature data is stored in the database. Based on the results of this
study, it can be concluded that a non-contact body temperature measuring device to
minimize the spread of Covid 19 based on the internet of things (IoT) has been
successfully created and can provide real-time body temperature information which
then also obtains the average temperature of visitors from the results of descriptive
statistical calculations. amounted to 36.3356
