American Scientific Resources has declared the receipt of its first purchase order from a US electronics retail chain, Best Buy for the VeraTemp thermometer named Kidz-Med to be evaluated in the retailer’s wellness and health departments in certain Best Buy stores.
VeraTemp Home Use Thermometer
The thermometers are based on sophisticated thermometry technology to register the temperature of a person by just pointing the device to the individual’s forehead and pressing a button.
The VeraTemp thermometer is non-contact type unlike conventional thermometers that need to be placed in a body orifice to get the appropriate temperature reading or the scan type thermometers that need to be scanned along a person’s forehead. The size of the thermometer is approximately equal to that of a remote control and it uses two AAA batteries. In order to measure the temperature, the device is aimed at the person’s forehead and the scan button is pressed. Instantly the thermometer provides ambient and forehead temperature after performing a large number of computations with a proprietary algorithm and gives the precise body temperature. Since the thermometer is non-contact type, it is also possible to determine temperatures of objects such as bath water, baby bottle, nursery or food. The readings are displayed on a large back-lit LED display and temperature is displayed in both Fahrenheit and Celsius. An Auto-off feature is provided to preserve battery life and a built in memory that stores the last 32 readings.
