WIRELESS MULTI-POINT FOOD THERMOMETER
One or more implementations of the present disclosure relate to a wireless, multi-sensor food thermometer that includes a temperature probe having a linear array of temperature sensors that are operative to measure: temperature profiles within a food product during a cooking process, a temperature at a core of the food product, a temperature at the surface of the food product, and a temperature of the ambient cooking environment in which the food is being cooked. The temperature probe includes a wireless interface that transmits temperature information to one or more external devices for use thereby. Rather than transmitting raw temperature data, the temperature probe may transmit coefficients that correspond to a function that describes the temperature profile within the food or parameters necessary to solve a governing heat equation, which reduces data transmission requirements and reduces power consumption. The food thermometer may include a charger case that houses the temperature probe and charges a power source of the temperature probe using a replaceable battery.
