Towards Preventing Gaps in Health Care Systems through Smartphone Use: Analysis of ARKit for Accurate Measurement of Facial Distances in Different Angles.

There is a growing consensus in the global health community that the use of communication technologies will be an essential factor in ensuring universal health coverage of the world's population. New technologies can only be used profitably if their accuracy is sufficient. Therefore, we explore the feasibility of using Apple's ARKit technology to accurately measure the distance from the user's eye to their smartphone screen.

Introducing a Navigation Algorithm for Reducing the Spread of Diseases in Public Transport Networks.

Reducing passenger flow through highly frequented bottlenecks in public transportation networks is a well-known urban planning problem. This issue has become even more relevant since the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and the necessity for minimum distances between passengers. We propose an approach that allows to dynamically navigate passengers around dangerously crowded stations to better distribute the passenger load across an entire urban public transport network.
