Disclosed are a system and a method for monitoring a patient with abnormal body temperature in an area. The system includes a detection module and a process module. The detection module continually generates a thermal image of this area, divides the thermal image into a plurality of mesh images, determines whether there is a mesh image showing a temperature over a threshold temperature, and determines a target thermal image according to the mesh images showing a temperature over the threshold temperature. After that, the process module generates a diagram showing the temperature variation of the mesh images of the target thermal image with time, and accordingly determines whether there is a patient with abnormal body temperature in this area. If yes, the process module sends an alarming message according to the temperature of the target thermal image and coordinates of each mesh image of the target thermal image, to report where the patient with abnormal body temperature is in this area and his abnormal body temperature.本發明提供一種體溫異常個體偵測系統與方法,以偵測一區域內體溫異常的個體。此系統包括相連接之感測模組與處理模組。感測模組持續地產生此區域的熱影像、將熱影像劃分為多個網格影像,並判斷是否存在溫度超過門檻溫度的網格影像,最後根據超過門檻溫度的網格影像判斷出目標熱影像。處理模組產生目標熱影像之溫度對時間的關係圖,並據此判斷該區域內是否存在體溫異常的個體,且若是,則根據目標熱影像的溫度與目標熱影像中每個網格影像的座標發出警示訊息,以回報體溫異常之個體於此區域內的位置及其體溫。10‧‧‧感測模組12‧‧‧影像擷取模組14‧‧‧影像解構模組16‧‧‧誤差排除模組20‧‧‧處理模組22‧‧‧影像分析模組24‧‧‧判斷模組26‧‧‧特徵辨識模組27‧‧‧位移檢索模組28‧‧‧影像還原模組
