WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.139 >> AS SOME INDIANA COMPANIES BEGIN TO REOPEN, EMPLOYERS ARE LOOKING FOR WAYS TO VERIFY EMPLOYEES AREN'T SHOWING 2 00:00:06.139 --> 00:00:12.479 SYMPTOMS OF COVID-19 AS THEY RETURN TO THE WORKPLACE. A SMALL SECURITY COMPANY IN INDIANAPOLIS IS PARTNERING WITH HOOSIER 3 00:00:12.479 --> 00:00:18.651 BUSINESSES TO TEST NEW "HEALTH SECURITY SYSTEMS" TO SCREEN WORKERS WHEN THEY CLOCK IN. BUSINESS OF HEALTH REPORTER 4 00:00:18.651 --> 00:00:26.126 KYLIE VELETA HAS MORE. >> THANK YOU, GERRY. 'HOOSIER SECURITY' LIKENS THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT TO THE GOLD 5 00:00:26.126 --> 00:00:30.697 RUSH FOR SECURITY COMPANIES DEMAND IS HIGH AS EMPLOYERS CLAMOR FOR WAYS TO SCREEN THEIR EMPLOYEES' HEALTH 6 00:00:30.697 --> 00:00:35.268 BEFORE THEY RETURN TO WORK EACH DAY. BUT IN THE WAKE OF COVID-19, HOOSIER SECURITY PRESIDENT 7 00:00:35.268 --> 00:00:41.775 ARMANDO PEREZ SAYS THE MARKET IS SATURATED WITH EQUIPMENT THAT MAY NOT DELIVER ON ITS PROMISES, SUCH AS SPOTTING AN EMPLOYEE 8 00:00:41.775 --> 00:00:49.115 WITH A FEVER. HE JOINS ME NOW TO TELL US HOW HIS COMPANY IS TESTING SECURITY HEALTH TECHNOLOGY TO FIND WHICH 9 00:00:49.115 --> 00:00:59.192 SSTEMS ARE MOST EFFECTIVE. THANKS FOR BEING HERE TODAY. >> THANKS FOR HAVING ME. >> 10 00:00:59.192 --> 00:01:01.494 GIVE US A QUICK INTRODUCTION TO HOOSIER SECURITY WHICH SPECIALIZES IN ELECTRONIC SECURITY SYSTEMS. YOU DESCRIBE 11 00:01:01.494 --> 00:01:10.103 YOUR COMPANY AS AN "INTEGRATOR," NOT A "MANUFACTURER." GERRY, CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT? >> CORRECT, WE ARE A REGIONAL 12 00:01:10.103 --> 00:01:17.811 SECURITY INTEGRATOR. THAT MEANS WE TAKE ELECTRONIC DEVICES AND WE PROVIDE A HIGHER LEVEL OF SECURITY AND WE MAKE SYSTEMS 13 00:01:17.811 --> 00:01:26.519 WORK TOGETHER. SO, INSTEAD OF WHERE WE MIGHT HAVE SAW A CAMERA SYSTEM, WE INSTALL A CAMERA SYSTEM AND ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM 14 00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:32.358 AND MAKE THEM WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THE BUSINESS RUN MORE SMOOTHLY. >> A COUPLE NAMES YOU WORK WITH 15 00:01:32.358 --> 00:01:40.333 AROUND TOWN, BOSMA, AND ANDRETTI AUTO SPORT. NOW HEALTH SECURITY SYSTEMS ARE GETTING A TON OF ATTENTION IN YOUR INDUSTRY. 16 00:01:40.333 --> 00:01:46.973 YOU'RE TESTING TWO NEW TECHNOLOGIES ON THE MARKET. LET'S START WITH THE FIRST, AN ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM, IT CAN 17 00:01:46.973 --> 00:01:56.015 TAKE A PERSON'S TEMPERATURE, TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS. >> AT THE BEGINNING, WHEN COVID REALLY STARTED TO IMPACT 18 00:01:56.015 --> 00:02:03.556 BUSINESSES, THE SECURITY INDUSTRY RESPONDED BY STARTING TO PROMOTE A LOT OF DIFFERENT THERMAL SOLUTIONS, THESE CAMERAS 19 00:02:03.556 --> 00:02:10.830 TO TAKE TEMPERATURES, AND WE IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH HOW THEY WERE DOING IT. THAT EQUIPMENT IS NOT DESIGNED 20 00:02:10.830 --> 00:02:17.337 FOR THAT USE CASE, IT IS DESIGNED TO FIND HOT SPOTS IN ELECTRONICS, VERY DIFFERENT THAN TAKING SOMEONE'S TEMPERATURE 21 00:02:17.337 --> 00:02:26.079 ACCURATELY. WE FOUND THERE WAS ALL KIND OF CONCERNS WITH HIPAA, AND THE NBAA, AND EVEN THE FDA GOT INVOLVED. SO WE DECIDED TO 22 00:02:26.079 --> 00:02:34.053 START LOOKING FOR SOLUTIONS THAT WOULD ACTUALLY WORK, AND WHAT WE FOUND WAS A LOT OF MARKETING OUT THERE. SO, WE INVESTED IN THE 23 00:02:34.053 --> 00:02:40.393 RESEARCH FOR ABOUT A DOZEN DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS, AND WE CAME TO TWO, ONE IS THE ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM, WHICH LOOKS 24 00:02:40.393 --> 00:02:47.967 SIMILAR TO A TABLET, MOUNTED ON THE WALL, AND IT DOES A COMBINATION OF TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF TEMPERATURE READING. 25 00:02:47.967 --> 00:02:55.508 BUT IT'S ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT A LOT OF THIS STUFF IS ADVERTISED AS FEVER DETECTING, THAT IS NOT WHAT IT IS DOING. 26 00:02:55.508 --> 00:03:02.215 MOST OF THE PROBLEMS WE HAVE WITH THE INDUSTRY IS THAT THEY'RE PROMOTING THIS HARDWARE, THESE SOLUTIONS AND MEDICAL 27 00:03:02.215 --> 00:03:12.692 DEVICES, WHEN REALLY ALL THEY ARE IS ENHANCED SCREENING. IF THEY'RE REALLY SMART THEY USE AI, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, TO 28 00:03:12.692 --> 00:03:19.699 DETECT IF SOMEONE IS WEARING A MASK, A TEMPERATURE HIGHER THAN A CERTAIN LEVEL. ALL OF THOSE THINGS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE, 29 00:03:19.699 --> 00:03:26.272 WE'RE NOT DETECTING THE PRESENCE OF AN ILLNESS, AND WE'RE NOT DETECTING A FEVER, BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT THE TEMPERATURE OF 30 00:03:26.272 --> 00:03:34.814 THE HUMAN BEING IN COMPARISON TO THEIR SURROUNDING. NOT THEIR CORE TEMPERATURE. >> WE'RE SEEING VIDEO FROM EVENT 31 00:03:34.814 --> 00:03:42.055 CENTER, ONE COMPAN SIGNED ON TO TEST THIS SYSTEM, YOU ALSO HAVE A LARGE HEALTHCARE CLIENT SIGNED ON. YOU TOUCHED ON THIS A LITTLE 32 00:03:42.055 --> 00:03:51.397 BIT, TALK ABOUT THIS EMERGING AREA RIGHT NOW OF HEALTH SECURITY, YOU'VE DESCRIBED IT TO ME IT'S KIND OF LIKE THE GOLD 33 00:03:51.397 --> 00:03:59.405 RETURN, YOU'RE WANTING TO PUSH BACK ON THAT. TELL US ABOUT YOUR PERSPECTIVE ON THAT. >> A LOT OF INDUSTRIES HAVE A 34 00:03:59.405 --> 00:04:05.912 TENDENCY TO JUMP INTO NEW THINGS WITHOUT FULLY VETTING THEM. WE ARE UNCOMFORTABLE PUTTING OUR NAME BEHIND ANYTHING THAT HASN'T 35 00:04:05.912 --> 00:04:14.153 BEEN TESTED AND USED IN THE FIELD. SO WE LAUNCHED A BETA PROGRAM AFTER NARROWING IT DOWN FROM ABOUT A DOZEN TO TWO 36 00:04:14.153 --> 00:04:22.829 DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS, WE REACHED OUT TO PARTNERS AND COMPANIES WITHIN THE MIDWEST GENERALLY SPEAKING, AND HAD THEM AGREE TO 37 00:04:22.829 --> 00:04:28.101 HELP US TEST THIS, AND IN EXCHANGE THEY WOULD GIVE US INFORMATION FOR A CASE ZICHLT SO, WHAT THE REST OF THE 38 00:04:28.101 --> 00:04:35.975 INDUSTRY IS DOING IS GOING OUT AND PUSHING THIS HARDWARE AS A SOLUTION BECAUSE THERE IS THIS SORT OF KNEE JERK REACTION IN 39 00:04:35.975 --> 00:04:44.984 INDUSTRY AND BUSINESS TO WE HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WE HAVE THESE RESTRICTIONS, LET'S JUST THROW MONEY AT IT. IN MY OPINION, IT 40 00:04:44.984 --> 00:04:50.990 IS COUNTER PRODUCTIVE. >> A SECOND TECHNOLOGY, THIS THERMAL CAMERA SCANNER SYSTEM. YOU SAID IT'S NOT GETTING QUITE 41 00:04:50.990 --> 00:05:00.266 AS MUCH TRACTION. EXPLAIN THAT ONE TO YOU, QUICKLY. >> SO, ONE OF OUR DRAWBACKS IS THAT WE'RE TOO HONEST WITH OUR 42 00:05:00.266 --> 00:05:09.242 CLIENTS. YOU KNOW, IF WE HAVE DOUBTS ABOUT SOMETHING WE'LL LET THEM KNOW. AND WITH THE THERMAL IMAGING, THE THERMAL GRAPHIC 43 00:05:09.242 --> 00:05:17.617 TEMPERATURE DETECTION, WE'VE HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE REALLY GETTING BEHIND IT. AND IT IS A THERMAL CAMERA THAT'S DESIGNED TO DETECT 44 00:05:17.617 --> 00:05:25.491 THE PRESENCE OF A HUMAN BEING, FOR EXAMPLE, AND IT SEES IN HEAT, NOT IN LIGHT. AND USES THAT ALONG WITH ARTIFICIAL 45 00:05:25.491 --> 00:05:32.465 INTELLIGENCE, MACHINE LEARNING TO DETECT THE TEMPERATURE OF THE HUMAN BEING CROSSING -- COMING TOWARDS THE CAMERA OR ACROSS THE 46 00:05:32.465 --> 00:05:42.075 CAMERA, AND THEN WE CAN USE FACIAL RECOGNITION TO ALERT HR, ALERT THEIR SUPERVISOR, WHOEVER'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT. 47 00:05:42.075 --> 00:05:50.083 BUT THE FARTHER AND FARTHER WE DIG INTO THAT TECHNOLOGY, THE MORE PROBLEMS WE FIND WITH T. IT SOMETIMES GETS DIFFICULT TO SELL 48 00:05:50.083 --> 00:05:58.057 A SOLUTION WHEN YOU DON'T 100% BELIEVE IN IT. THAT'S WHERE THIS BETA PROGRAM HAS BEEN REALLY EYE OPENING, BECAUSE WE SEE A LOT OF 49 00:05:58.057 --> 00:06:05.431 COMPANIES BUYING THAT EQUIPMENT AT FULL RETAIL, AND WE JUST KNOW FOR A FACT THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK AS INTENDED. 50 00:06:05.431 --> 00:06:11.938 >> ALL RIGHT, ARMANDO, YOU'VE GOT YOUR WORK CUT OUT FOR YOU. THANKS FOR BEING ON THE SHOW AND TELLING US ABOUT THESE TWO 51 00:06:11.938 --> 00:06:12.939 TECHNOLOGIES.
