Thermal Camera Solutions

What Thermal Camera Solutions does

Thermal Camera Solutions is a UK-based reseller and integrator of automatic thermal body temperature monitoring cameras, operating as a trading name under the legal entity Design Film Digital Solutions from Albury, Guildford, Surrey. The company was established circa 2020 to serve COVID-era workplace screening demand and offers three core Dahua-manufactured camera products (the Wrist Temperature Camera, the Body Temperature Monitoring Camera/TMAC, and the Turnstile Temperature Camera) augmented with AI-powered facial recognition, mask detection, door access integration, and an online reporting portal plus mobile app alerts.

The underlying technology is supplied by Dahua; Thermal Camera Solutions adds configuration, CSCS/CITB-certified installation, remote monitoring, and on-site maintenance. The company's go-to-market is predominantly direct enterprise field sales via phone and email, complemented by a 7-day free trial funnel, content marketing (blog, case studies, YouTube), and organic social on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook. Revenue is generated through hardware sales, short-term rental (events, concerts), professional installation services, and managed maintenance contracts, with quote-based pricing and no publicly disclosed rates.

Thermal Camera Solutions serves UK businesses across healthcare and care homes, corporate offices, hospitality and entertainment, events and venues, and a long tail of other industries including automotive, real estate, financial services, technology, government, oil and gas, transport, and pharmaceuticals. Named case-study customers include The Clavadel (care home), Battersea Power Station (open-air cinema), Bibendum Restaurant (Michelin-starred hospitality), Carey Group (engineering/construction), and an unnamed global technology company. The company holds a core supplier relationship with Dahua and a mutual partnership with PPE Medicare for bundled workplace safety offerings.

Core offering

Thermal Camera Solutions distributes, configures, installs, and supports automatic contactless thermal imaging camera systems for workplace body temperature screening, mask detection, and facial-recognition-based access control. The offering is sold or rented as turnkey systems (cameras, accessories, installation by certified technicians, ongoing support, and maintenance), with bundled reporting via a web portal and mobile app alerts.

Product overview

Thermal Camera Solutions offers a portfolio of automatic, contactless body temperature monitoring cameras for COVID-19 and infection control screening. The core product line consists of three thermal camera systems: the Wrist Temperature Camera (entry-level wrist scan), the Body Temperature Monitoring Camera/TMAC (most popular body scan with facial recognition), and the Turnstile Temperature Camera (high-volume access control). All cameras integrate with an online portal and mobile app for real-time alerts and reporting. Additional features include mask detection, facial recognition, and door access integration. The company also provides rental and purchase options with installation, training, and maintenance support.

Products and services

• Wrist Temperature Camera Entry-level thermal camera system that scans an individual's body temperature via wrist proximity; triggers audio and visual alarms almost immediately if temperature exceeds 37.8 degrees Celsius. Targeted at UK workplaces needing a low-friction, contactless temperature screening option.
• Body Temperature Monitoring Camera (TMAC) Most popular thermal camera in the firm's portfolio, available as floor stand or desk mount. Scans body temperature from a distance using facial recognition software, detects fever, and triggers audio/visual alarms for elevated temperatures. Used by UK workplaces, healthcare facilities and event venues for contactless screening.
• Turnstile Temperature Camera Thermal camera system designed to mount on turnstiles for high-volume screening. Combines access control with facial recognition to grant or deny entry based on temperature readings and mask compliance, integrating with door access control systems. Targeted at venues, stadiums, gyms and event operators handling large crowds.
• Thermal Camera System Rental Short-term rental of a fully configured thermal camera system, including accessories, set-up, ready-to-go delivery, ongoing support and maintenance during the rental period. Suited to events, concerts and one-off gatherings needing temporary screening capacity.

Broad incumbents

• Dahua Technology: Chinese manufacturer of all thermal cameras sold by Thermal Camera Solutions. Directly comparable as the underlying OEM supplying the same hardware globally, with vastly larger scale and direct-to-customer channels that could disintermediate the UK reseller.
• Honeywell: Large industrial and building technology conglomerate offering thermal cameras, building access control, and integrated health-screening solutions. Comparable because its products target the same enterprise customers in healthcare, hospitality, and corporate facilities.
• Bosch Security Systems: Global security and building technologies provider offering thermal imaging cameras and access control. Comparable as a broad incumbent serving overlapping UK enterprise, healthcare, and hospitality customers with integrated safety solutions.
• Axis Communications: Major network camera and physical access control vendor with thermal imaging offerings. Comparable because its thermal cameras can be deployed for body temperature screening and integrate with the same access control systems Thermal Camera Solutions targets.
• FLIR Systems (Teledyne FLIR): Industry-leading thermal imaging camera manufacturer. Comparable because FLIR's elevated temperature screening cameras competed in the same COVID-era fever-detection use case at the higher end of the market, and its products are sold across UK enterprise and public-sector channels.
• Hikvision: Global leader in video surveillance and thermal imaging cameras with a UK presence. Comparable because it offers competing thermal temperature-screening camera solutions, including similar fever-detection models sold directly to enterprises and government.

Emerging players

• Seek Thermal: US-based thermal imaging camera maker with compact and smartphone-attached thermal cameras. Comparable at a different price point for consumer and prosumer fever-screening and inspection use cases overlapping with Thermal Camera Solutions' lower-end wrist-camera offering.
• Opgal Optronic Industries: Israel-based thermal imaging camera manufacturer with elevated body temperature screening products. Comparable because it serves the same COVID-era fever-detection use case with thermal camera solutions sold through international distribution channels.

Direct peers

• Infrared Cameras Inc (ICI): US-based manufacturer of infrared thermal imaging cameras, including elevated temperature screening systems. Comparable because ICI sells analogous body-temperature screening cameras into the same workplace and public-venue use cases.
• Thermoteknix: UK-based specialist in thermal imaging technology with fever-screening and body temperature measurement solutions. Directly comparable as a similarly-sized UK firm selling thermal temperature-screening cameras into healthcare, transport, and enterprise customers.
