FLIR Markets Windows Temperature Screening, Violates IEC And Causes Performance Problems

As we covered in our report on The Protection Bureau and ZKTeco's similar marketing, this is a risk to public safety, as these devices are used to allow/deny entry to facilities.

Moreover, we have tested FLIR's offering (see FLIR Screen-EST Screening Software Tested, FLIR A Series Temperature Screening Cameras Tested) and found performance problems from doing so, further described inside.
