ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a voice thermoscan having a main body in which a sensor circuit, a microprocessor, a liquid crystal display (LCD), an electronic erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), and a communication interface are included. When the voice thermoscan is used to take a patient's temperature, the sensor circuit senses an infrared heat at a temperature point on the patient's eardrum and sends a corresponding signal to the microprocessor for the same to sample and digitize the signal and compare the digitized signal with corrected data stored in the EEPROM, in order to verify the temperature value of the infrared heat and output the comparison result to the LCD for display. The microprocessor can also output the value of temperature to the communication interface to indicate the value of temperature by voice or music and also voice and music. Thereby, the thermoscan can be conveniently used by all people, including the blind.
