Placed at the entrance of a building, the robot measures the temperature of those who want to enter and if the fever is high, it does not allow the doors to open. If the fever is normal, it gives guests masks and disinfectant.
Onur Bekyürek, district education director, said the robot prototype cost $1,000. "We believe this figure will drop to $700 if we start mass production," he said, adding the robot can be used in all schools and institutions in Turkey.
