Pathogen detection system and pathogen detection method
View Patent ↗A pathogen detection system includes pathogen detectors disposed in different locations, and a controller. The pathogen detectors include a first pathogen detector and a second pathogen detector. The first pathogen detector transmits a first detection result obtained as a result of pathogen detection to the controller, and the second pathogen detector transmits a second detection result obtained as a result of pathogen detection to the controller. In a case where the first detection result satisfies a predetermined condition, the controller causes the second pathogen detector to change a mode related to the pathogen detection from a first mode to a second mode.
