The Thermotracker is an ear thermometer developed in one week. It uses a pre-warmed wireless earbud-style temperature probe, making temperature readings easier and more comfortable.
To use the Thermotracker, users simply pull the earpiece out from its magnetic storage hole and place it in their ear. Temperatures appear on the screen.
Pressing the memory button on the tip of the Thermotracker cycles through the 10 most recent temperature readings for reference during an illness.
The Thermotracker suction-cups to a bathroom mirror for easy access during periods of frequent use.
The Thermotracker allows users to load and dispose of the replacable probe tips without ever touching them, thereby reducing germ transfer.
The first round of concepts
Idea for internal track to hold disposable tip covers
The renders here are a couple years old. I just finished an updated version of the thermometer, and should have photos of the final prototype up soon. In the meantime, a lot of it is shown in the Work in Progress section at https://www.behance.net/wip/509909.
Thanks for reading!
