Contactless Smart Infrared Thermometer using Arduino and Android App



In this article we explain designing a Low cost, Easy to build Contactless Thermometer that can measure body temperature, log them into an excel along with the picture of the individuals so that the record can be easily shared with concerned authorities. 

We can create a simple Android application that can communicate with our thermometer and perform other activities like data logging and image capture. This way we can not only make it work faster but can also increase its potential application by instantaneously sharing log results with pictures on WhatsApp, Gmail, or any other preferred platform. This is why we created our Android application called “Easy Scan” which is open-sourced and the APK is also free to download, more on this later. So the only material required for this project are as below:
