Important First Time Setup Notes Continued
Step By Step Notes From The Video Continued
--------------------------------------
Turning Off Monocular Live (optional for faster performance)
Go into Face Settings and turn OFF the Monocular Live option, save & restart. This option simply
tries to determine if it is a live individual before scanning (rather than a prankster holding up a photo)
but it makes the device a lot less responsive so it's best to turn it off.
Turning Off Mask Detection Mode (optional for faster performance)
Go back into Face Settings and turn OFF the Mask Detection mode, if you don't mind the device not
prompting to wear a mask. With this setting off the device runs even quicker and is more responsive
than normal - people can still wear masks it just won't try to figure out if they are or not. Save & restart
the device. * Note this only gives a minor boost to performance.
Additional Notes
--------------------------------------
Normalizing Temperature Before Scanning
Another important consideration is how cold it is outdoors. Neither this device or any other
non-internal thermometer can give a good reading if people are coming in from cold & windy outdoors
unless they linger around for a minute or two after coming indoors to normalize their surface
temperature.
A Note About Facial / Head Accessories
Also important to remember is that the device needs to identify motion in front of it as a person before
it will give a reading, until then it will just say to 'align with the red dot'. This means you need to be
aware of too many facial/head accessories such as hats / earmuffs / glasses / scarfs / or masks that
have wild patterns or cartoon faces on them. These things can disrupt the device from giving a scan
and instead only saying to 'align with the red dot'.
Hood Attachment For Camera
Make sure that you use the hood attachment that comes with the device so that you can shield the
camera sensor from overhead lights which will disrupt the camera from performing.
Once these changes are done the device should be far more responsive and reliable.
