Temperature sensor packages and methods of fabrication are described. The temperature sensor packages in accordance with embodiments may be rigid or flexible. In some embodiments the temperature sensor packages are configured for touch sensing, and include an electrically conductive sensor pattern such as a thermocouple or resistance temperature detector (RTD) pattern. In some embodiments, the temperature sensor packages are configured for non-contact sensing an include an embedded transducer.

Wearable devices capable of measuring a core body temperature and other vital signs of a user in a range of situations are described herein. The wearable device is arranged to be retained within the ear canal of the ear, in order to prevent the wearable device from inadvertently removing itself from the ear. Providing an infrared thermopile at the innermost end of the ear insert ensures that the infrared thermopile is provided as close as possible to the tympanic membrane which will be used to provide an indication of the core body temperature.

An ear thermometer includes a probe including an infrared sensor unit for measuring a temperature of an eardrum of an ear of a temperature measurement target parson in a non-contact manner, the probe attached to an ear hole of the temperature measurement target parson. The probe includes a probe body inserted into the ear hole of the temperature measurement target parson, a housing for supporting the probe body; and an in-ear type earpiece attached to the probe body and abutting on an inside of the ear hole of the temperature measurement target person. The infrared sensor unit includes a first sensor and a second sensor arranged in the probe body and spaced apart by a predetermined distance along a direction substantially orthogonal to the eardrum when the probe body is inserted into the ear hole of the temperature measurement target person.

A thermometer includes an input unit, a control unit, a temperature sensor and an output unit. In response to an input operation is applied on the input unit, the control unit starts to perform a temperature detecting procedure, wherein the control unit instructs the temperature sensor to periodically perform a plurality of temperature detecting operations to obtain a plurality of detected temperature values corresponding to the temperature detecting operations, and only records X larger valid temperature values among the obtained temperature values. In response to determining that the performed temperature detecting procedure is completed, the control unit removes the largest one among the recorded valid temperature values and calculates an average value of the remaining one or more target temperature values as a temperature of a target object, so as to instruct the output unit display the temperature.

A protective cover for an insertion probe of a medical instrument. The cover contains a flexible tubular body that compliments the probe geometry and a radially disposed flange that surrounds the proximal end of the body. A series of snap-on fasteners removably connect the cover to the instrument. A camming surface is located on the outer face of the flange which coacts with a cam follower that is movably mounted upon the instrument to flex the cover sufficiently to open the fastener and release the cover from the instrument and move the cover axially toward the distal end of the tip.

This invention discloses a probe structure and a thermometer, simply-structured but easy to use for users in a dark environment. The technique solution adopted in this invention is a probe structure, including a probe main body, a temperature sensor module and an optical assembly. The probe main body includes a detection end and a configuration end. The detection end is configured for touching or approaching an object. The configuration end is configured for connecting to an external thermometer body. The probe main body has a chamber for storing the temperature sensor module. The optical assembly is positioned at the configuration end. The optical assembly includes at least one lamp, a lamp panel and a light transmitting component. The at-least-one lamp is positioned at the lamp panel and the light transmitting component is disposed at the periphery of the lamp panel. Light emitted by the lamp passes through the light transmitting component.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a connection request processing method, a Bluetooth earphone, a wearable device, a system and a storage medium. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, upon receiving an A2DP connection request sent by a terminal device, it being not necessary to maintain an A2DP connection with the terminal device is determined according to current status information of the Bluetooth earphone; a type of the terminal device is identified according to a situation of other connection request sent by the terminal device received before receiving the A2DP connection request; and the A2DP connection request in a manner suitable for the type of the terminal device to maintain a non-A2DP connection status with the terminal device is processed.

This document describes techniques for, and systems that enable, in-ear health monitoring. The techniques described herein enable early detection of health conditions (e.g., contagious disease) through use of an in-ear health-monitoring and audio device. These techniques prompt a user, often through the user's smart phone, to listen to audio content through the device, which also takes the user's temperature. Through repetitive use, the techniques are capable of determining a temperature differential for the user, which aids in early detection of a contagious disease or other malady.

A temperature calibration method for an ear thermometer with a probe cover is provided. The temperature calibration method includes: providing the ear thermometer with the probe cover, the ear thermometer including a plurality of activation elements which are configured to sense an infrared transmittance of the probe cover to obtain a measured transmittance value; using the ear thermometer to measure an object to be tested to obtain an uncalibrated temperature; obtaining an infrared radiation energy emitted by the object to be tested, according to the uncalibrated temperature, the measured transmittance value, a preset transmittance value, and a radiation energy measurement formula; and calibrating the uncalibrated temperature to a calibrated temperature, according to a temperature calibration function.
