Safe Entry Stations are powered by a proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm developed by Predictmedix. The clinically-based AI was designed by data scientists and clinicians to identify multiple symptoms of infectious disease, displaying the result in the form of a red or green light.

The technology can also be configured to screen for impairment by THC and alcohol. All screening is entirely autonomous and designed to protect the privacy of the end-user. Completely unique to other solutions on the market, the AI is currently patent pending in North America.

“SBL is an ideal partner to bring this technology to market. They have a unique perspective on the space, having been immersed in it for many years, and appreciate the value of the solution as a long-term risk mitigation tool,” said Jonathan Auger, president and founder of JUICEWORKS, in a statement.

Rich Robillard, managing director of SBL, said Safe Entry is a critical risk mitigation tool for today’s workplace, given the current COVID-19 pandemic and further waves or variants, among other disease threats.

“The ability to objectively screen for infectious disease symptoms non-invasively and in seconds presents an entirely new first layer of risk mitigation,” he said.

Dr Rahul Kushwah, COO of Predictmedix, added: “The market positioning of SBL in workplace health safety and testing technologies provides us with an ideal partner to scale SAFE ENTRY both for infectious disease screening along with impairment screening all over North America and the Caribbean. Furthermore, the executive team at SBL has a clear vision and action plan for SAFE ENTRY which aligns with the long-term vision of Predictmedix.”
