ThermBot can be used at home and even on the go, which means it is not a heavy hospital grade medical equipment but just a small device easily accessible to everyone and portable to use. Its size and dimensions can be compared to a keychain actually. A silicon casing covers this thermometer which can easily be clipped to your keys. It is powered by a very compact 9v battery as well.
This thermometer can be connected to an iPhone or an Android Phone to take down the reading. The gadget must be pointed towards your head at the distance of 0.4 inches to as far as 1.9 inches while taking down the reading instantly in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
