Ajman Police officers are using smart helmets that can scan the temperatures of hundreds of people every minute in their effort to combat the spread of coronavirus.
The helmets, which need less time and less contact than traditional thermometers, can trigger an alert if a fever is detected.
They can measure temperatures from five metres away and scan up to 200 people a minute.
Officials said the helmets were able to record 2,031 COVID-19 safety protocol violations after scanning 33,910 individuals.
They've also used these helmets to survey 778 shops, beaches and parks, and educate 18,740 people about the importance of following precautionary measures.
