The Thermo Thermometer lasted for 4,000 times in 2 seconds. Did you buy it?

It is believed that many parents want the baby to measure body temperature. Recently, Withings announced that Thermo , a non-contact thermometer product of the company, has been certified by the FDA as the highlight of the "most accurate non-invasive" clinical thermometer.

Thermo was unveiled at this year's CES, and officially launched a few days ago, priced at 99.95 US dollars, for the time being only supports Apple's iOS system.

According to the introduction, Thermo's temperature measurement uses 16 infrared sensors to perform more than 4,000 measurements on the forehead. It only needs to sweep from the side of the forehead to the other side. The value will be displayed on the handle in two seconds. And this product has another feature: Wi-Fi Bluetooth eat it, can record the body temperature value of up to 8 members, and learn from the past temperature records and medical history of the subjects to provide the best treatment recommendations.

In fact, the non-contact thermometer is not regarded as any high-tech, the main principle is infrared detection, known for its short measurement time, convenient and hygienic. However, there are also problems with its convenience.

If the thermometer is non-contact, it can easily be disturbed by the outside world. For example, artificially fanning the thermometer, the temperature will drop immediately. The Thermo's approach is smarter. It creates a circular recess in the probe, which is conducive to the concentrated measurement of the temperature in the area and the rapid temperature measurement by infrared.

"Theoretically, it can be reliable, but it requires a certain amount of technical content to be calibrated." Lei Feng network (search "Lei Feng network" public concern) consulted for the strange health CTO Rao Huaming, he speculated that the principle of Thermo is mainly Each sensor measures the temperature of a single point and then selects the highest temperature value.

However, the thermo sensor with 16 infrared sensors is so sensitive. Will it be more susceptible to external interference? Rao Huaming is not too concerned about this, he believes that increasing the number of sensors is equivalent to increasing the number of sampling points on the skin, "should not affect the sensitivity."

The advantage of Thermo is that it is faster than a contact thermometer with a thermistor. However, are you really willing to spend more than 600 yuan to buy a "non-essential" thermometer?
