Abstract
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a coronavirus-borne ailment that has just been discovered. In most
cases, the infection will cause mild to moderate breathing difficulties. As time goes on, the COVID-19
pandemic continues to get stronger. A wide range of disciplines must therefore provide reliable
solutions to the problem of risk mitigation. A useful technology is gaining worldwide acceptance
because of the rapid growth of Google Glass. An AR-enabled Google Glass is envisioned in this idea,
which details the overall design of the device and key components. It was investigated whether a sensor
might be used to monitor a person's temperature from afar. Google Glass receives the temperature
reading from the sensor. The GPS coordinates of the wearer will be sent to the cloud if the measured
value is higher than the national average. There have been a lot of past studies done with Google Glass
and other smart glasses for a range of different applications. We think that if the idea is used in real-
time, the death rate can be significantly reduced while maintaining social distance, and many infected
patients can be found.
