Since late 2019, the global spread of COVID-19 has affected people's daily life. Temperature is an early and common symptom of Covid. Therefore, a convenient and remote temperature detection method is needed. In this paper, a non-contact method for detecting body temperature is proposed. Our developed algorithm based on blackbody radiation calculates the body temperature of a user-selected area from an obtained image. The findings were confirmed using a FLIR Thermal Camera with an accuracy of 97%.
