Abstract

A method for remotely measuring body temperature of persons and for watching the persons, includes attaching one or more temperature measuring devices to one or more persons or patients, to detect body temperatures or locations or identifications of the persons or patients. The information detected by the temperature measuring devices may be sent to a monitoring device via a blue tooth receiver device, to receive and monitor and watch the changing of the body temperature or locations or identifications of the persons or patients wirelessly or remotely, without going to see and to contact with the persons or patients.

Claims

1. A method for remotely measuring body temperature of persons and for watching the persons, said method comprising:

attaching at least one temperature measuring device to the person, to detect body temperature of the person,

providing and arranging at least one blue tooth receiver device to receive the body temperature of the person detected by said at least one temperature measuring devices, and

providing a monitoring device to communicate with said at least one temperature measuring device via a network system, to receive the body temperature of the person detected by said at least one temperature measuring device, from said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising providing and sending an identification of the person to said monitoring device with said at least one temperature measuring device, via said network system and said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising providing and sending a location information of the person to said monitoring device with said at least one temperature measuring device, via said network system and said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising transferring the detected body temperature of the person to a blue tooth signal for transmitting to said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

5. The method as claimed in claim 4 further comprising reading said blue tooth signal from said at least one temperature measuring device with said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising searching for said at least one temperature measuring devices with said at least one blue tooth receiver device, to check whether said at least one temperature measuring device is located within a range of said at least one blue tooth receiver device.

7. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising comparing the body temperature detected by said at least one temperature measuring device from said at least one blue tooth receiver device with a limit of endurable body temperature, to determine whether the detected body temperature exceeds the limit of endurable body temperature or not.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising displaying the detected body temperature.

9. The method as claimed in claim 7 further comprising generating a warning signal when the detected body temperature exceeds the limit of endurable body temperature.
