Forehead thermometer, also referred as temporal artery thermometer, stands for a non-intrusive device that depends on infrared energy that radiates from the patient’s forehead to get its readings. The energy is collected by a lens situated at the front of the thermometer and then converted to the temperature and displayed on the screen. The device includes an arterial heat balance system that mainly comprises of infrared sensors, capacitor, LCD driver, LCD screen, and PCB microcontroller diodes. The non-contact variant minimizes the risk of infections while the contact forehead temperature offers a quicker and accurate display of arterial temperature in both touch and non-touch modes. Since early 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has augmented the demand for forehead temperatures for contactless measurement of body temperature.

The rising growth of the forehead thermometer market can be attributed to technological advancements catalyzing the development of digital and infrared thermometers. Furthermore, the rising consumer health concerns along with the increasing demand for technologies that reduce the risk of infections, is also driving the market. A sharp rise in COVID-19 infections across the globe has augmented the demand for routine temperature check-ups, along with curbing the risk of disease transmission. As a result, forehead thermometers are widely being adopted across airports, malls, offices, hospitals, etc. for frequent and efficient health screening processes. furthermore, the growing awareness towards self-care coupled with the convenience of self-monitoring provided by these thermometers, further augments the product demand for home users. Moreover, the increasing investments in improving healthcare infrastructures along with rising consumer living standards are also driving the popularity of forehead thermometers.
