SYSTEMS AND DEVICES FOR REAL TIME HEALTH STATUS CREDENTIALING

摘要

The technology provides an external device for estimating a core body temperature of a human subject. The wrist monitor device includes a casing sized and shaped to fit onto a wrist of a human subject. The casing has a first face and a second face. In addition there is a cavity in the casing that houses a heat trap. The heat trap has an opening oriented to receive incoming thermal energy from the skin and a shell of a thermal-insulation material that has an inner thermal energy-reflective surface. Detected temperature data is compiled in a database and used to estimate whether an identified individual has a core body temperature indicative of a fever.

主权项

1. An external device for estimating a core body temperature of a human subject, the device comprising:
a casing sized and shaped to fit onto a skin surface of a human subject, the casing having:
a first face and a second face;a heat trap located in a cavity in the first face of the casing, the heat trap located adjacent to the first face of the casing and having an opening oriented to receive incoming thermal energy, the heat trap having a shell comprising a thermal-insulation material, the shell having an inner thermal energy-reflective surface;a first temperature sensor extending into or along the shell to measure a temperature within the heat trap;a second temperature sensor at a peripheral region of the casing;a transmitter in communication with the first and second temperature sensors to transmit temperature data.
