Percentage of infected people 0.1% This is the amount of people currently tested positive for COVID-19. Some of these people are in the hospital and do not count, also the people tested positive will be a lot more careful coming into contact with others. However there are also people that have COVID-19 that are not tested. This will even out and so the same percentage of infected people was taken. [2]
Chance of detecting a cough with camera and microphone 87% Chance obtained by Korean researchers using a similar system [3]
Measurement station cycle time 4 minutes 1 minute testing + 2 minutes disinfecting + 1 spare minute
Expected false positive rate in measurement station 7% Study of similar cough classification algorithm achieved 96.6% accuracy. In this specific case this becomes higher than only the cough test since only 1 test needs to be positive to refuse access [4]
Expected false negative rate in measurement station 7% Study of similar cough classification algorithm achieved 96.6% accuracy. In this specific case this becomes higher than only the cough test since only 1 test needs to be positive to refuse access [4]
Frequency of random person getting picked out After every 2 coughing persons detected, 1 person is picked out randomly, if there is no queue This will ensure random people are not picked too often/not often enough and also random persons will not have to wait in a queue
Chance a healthy person coughs when in range of the microhpone 0.08% Based on average cough time and walking speed [5]
Estimated cost of the total system €10950 €5500 for thermal camera, €1000 for microphones, €100 for microphone in cabin, €400 for camera on pole, €750 for camera pole, €3000 for booth including computer, software, screens, and interfaces, €200 for UV light Various webshops
