WEARABLE DEVICE AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18025168 titled 'WEARABLE DEVICE AND TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a wearable device and a temperature measurement method that utilizes equivalent capacitance to measure the temperature of a biological body. The device includes a first sensing member, a second sensing member, and a processor to determine the contact state between the sensing member and the body and adjust for temperature compensation accordingly.
- The wearable device includes a first sensing member, a second sensing member, and a processor.
- The first sensing member forms equivalent capacitance with a biological body and receives heat from it.
- The second sensing member measures the temperature of the first sensing member as an initial temperature.
- The processor reads the capacitance value to determine the contact state between the first sensing member and the biological body.
- The processor decides whether to match a corresponding temperature compensation value to the initial temperature based on the contact state.

Original Abstract Submitted
This application relates to the field of temperature measurement technologies, and provides a wearable device and a temperature measurement method. The wearable device includes a first sensing member, a second sensing member, and a processor. When the wearable device is close to a biological body, the first sensing member forms equivalent capacitance with the biological body, and the first sensing member receives heat of the biological body. The second sensing member is configured to measure temperature of the first sensing member as an initial temperature. The processor is configured to read a capacitance value of the equivalent capacitance and determine a contact state between the first sensing member and the biological body according to the capacitance value. The processor is configured to determine whether to match a corresponding temperature compensation value to the initial temperature according to the contact state.
