Measuring system and method for the contactless determination of the body core temperature
First Claim
1. A measuring system for the contactless determination of the body core temperature of a person, the measuring system comprising:
- an infrared sensor directed toward the nose-side area of the canthus of the person;
an evaluating unit, said infrared sensor being connected with said evaluating unit for the evaluation of the infrared signal;
a computing unit, said evaluating unit being connected with said computing unit for a calculation of a body core temperature of the person from the infrared signal determined; and
output means for providing an output of the measured signals and/or of the calculated value for the body core temperature.

Abstract
A measuring system and method for the contactless and continuous determination of the body core temperature of a person/subject preferably includes a matrix-like infrared sensor (3) that is directed toward the nose-side area of the canthus. The infrared sensor (3) is connected with an evaluating unit (5) for the evaluation of the infrared signals and the selection of the maximum in the matrix. The evaluating unit (5) is connected with a computing unit (6) for the calculation of the body core temperature from the maximum determined and for displaying via a display (7) and/or transmission of the measured signals and/or the calculated value for the body core temperature.
