Predictmedix notes recent deployment of its screening technology in Tampa Bay, Florida

Predictmedix Inc (CSE:PMED) (OTCQB:PMEDF) updated Tuesday on the recent deployment of its technology at parties in Tampa Bay, Florida, marking the group’s first entry into the live event space. 

The company uses artificial intelligence (AI) to collect data, which can identify if someone is under the influence of cannabis or alcohol, or has an infectious disease such as coronavirus (COVID-19) and its ‘safe entry stations’ were used at Tampa’s VIP Big Game Weekend Parties amid the Super Bowl festivities.

Three units were deployed in total and over 6,000 individuals were scanned, said Predictmedix.

“Due to the outdoor nature of the venue coupled with the lack of internet connectivity, our team was able to customize a mobile remote configuration set up that allowed for over 6,000 individuals to be continuously, autonomously scanned for symptoms. The average response time of the technology with the mobile infrastructure was between 3-4 seconds per scan,” the company said in a statement.

One of the individuals at the event tested red and was subject to a rapid antigen test immediately after, which later confirmed a diagnosis of coronavirus (COVID-19), it added.

“The individual and their friends were removed immediately from the premises.”

Several events were held at the Godfrey Property – a 20,000 square foot outdoor space at the WTR Tampa Pool and Grill was the premiere Super Bowl event location for VIPs and celebrities, said Predictmedix.

“We wanted the best possible solution available on the market. Safe Entry was far superior to any other solutions we explored, and I can honestly say it lived up to all the hype and more. Identifying symptomatic individuals allowed us to keep the rest of our guests safe so that they could enjoy the festivities,” said Mike Piper, the principal of events company Pied Piper Productions, one of the groups behind the parties.
