Emerging technologies like AI and advanced wireless systems can enforce social distancing. Future smart infrastructures should integrate a "pandemic mode" for proactive public health responses.
Area of Science:
- Technology
- Public Health
- Computer Science
Background:
- Social distancing is crucial for pandemic control.
- Part I surveyed wireless technologies for social distancing.
- Part II focuses on AI and other emerging tech.
Purpose of the Study:
- To survey emerging technologies for social distancing.
- To explore AI, computer vision, thermal, and ultrasound applications.
- To identify solutions for symptom prediction, monitoring, and contact tracing.
Main Methods:
- Review of machine learning and computer vision.
- Analysis of thermal and ultrasound sensing technologies.
- Discussion of smart infrastructure integration.
Main Results:
- Emerging technologies offer novel solutions for social distancing challenges.
- AI and sensing tech can aid in symptom prediction and quarantine monitoring.
- Contact tracing can be enhanced through these advanced technologies.
Conclusions:
- Privacy, scheduling, and incentives are key implementation challenges.
- Smart infrastructures (6G, smart cities) should adopt a 'pandemic mode'.
- Proactive integration of pandemic preparedness into infrastructure design is recommended.
