Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, possible sensor applications for symptom and contagion detection are described. For symptom detection, the most recent contagious outbreaks were considered, namely Norovirus, Covid-19, and Influenza. Possible measurable indicators were explored as well as the available approaches to accurately measure them. For contagion control, different approaches are proposed that range from real-time location systems to mobile phone contact tracking. The particular conditions for locating a person inside a cruise ship raise additional obstacles taken into account when searching for possible solutions.
