A multi-configuration electronic thermometer operates in any of a plurality of modes, including a rectal mode, an underarm mode and an oral mode. A probe arm swings about an axis that is located closer to one end of an elongate thermometer body than it is to the other end. In a first, rectal configuration, only a limited length of the probe arm extends beyond a front end of the thermometer body. In a second configuration, the probe arm is swung to a position such that its free end is farther from a second end of the body than it was from the first end while in the first configuration. The probe arm is spring-loaded to lock to a user-selected one of the configurations and is torsionally biased to the more compact, first configuration. Different sensing algorithms are used depending on the mode selected.

A wearable environmental sensor includes an environmental sensor arranged on a wall surface of a housing including a sealed section, the wall being in contact with an environment, and a protective structure formed around the environmental sensor, wherein the protective structure includes a plurality of ventilating holes, a sensor surface of the environmental sensor is arranged to face an opening of at least one of the ventilating holes, and an attaching part for attaching the environmental sensor to the wall surface comes into contact only with an edge of a sensor substrate of the environmental sensor and with a portion of a back face of the sensor substrate.
