2. Infrared thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_thermometer

   The most common infrared thermometer is the spot infrared pyrometer or infrared pyrometer, which measures the temperature at a spot on a surface (actually a relatively small area determined by the D:S ratio). These usually project a visible red dot onto the center of the area being measured that identifies the spot being measured, but plays no ...

3. Non-contact thermography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-contact_thermography

   Infrared (IR) temperature measurement for fever screening correctly done at the medial canthus (tear duct) of the eye. Thermography has been promoted by some alternative medicine practitioners as a means to diagnose cancer, although it is not effective for this purpose.

4. Thermography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermography

   Since infrared radiation is emitted by all objects with a temperature above absolute zero according to the black body radiation law, thermography makes it possible to see one's environment with or without visible illumination. The amount of radiation emitted by an object increases with temperature; therefore, thermography allows one to see ...

5. Medical thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_thermometer

   A medical thermometer or clinical thermometer is a device used for measuring the body temperature of a human or other animal. The tip of the thermometer is inserted into the mouth under the tongue (oral or sub-lingual temperature), under the armpit (axillary temperature), into the rectum via the anus (rectal temperature), into the ear (tympanic temperature), or on the forehead (temporal ...

6. Thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermometer

   An infrared thermometer is a kind of pyrometer . All objects above absolute zero emit blackbody radiation for which the spectra is directly proportional to the temperature. This property is the basis for a pyrometer or infrared thermometer and thermography. It has the advantage of remote temperature sensing; it does not require contact or even ...

7. Bioinstrumentation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioinstrumentation

   Infrared Thermometers are used to collect temperature data from patients similar to a regular Medical thermometer. However, infrared thermometers are uniquely designed to be used at a distance allowing for contactless readings. The temperature of the patient is determined by capturing the infrared radiation that is constantly emitted from the ...
