Thrmotrak™ — a wearable body temperature monitor

A wearable device that monitors human body temperature and transfers the readings wirelessly to a mobile phone app, where the logged history can be reviewed and shared.

The challenge

A thermometer gives you a number for one moment, taken by someone who has to be there to take it. What that misses is the shape of a temperature over hours — when it started climbing, how fast, whether it came back down overnight.

Closing that gap means a device small and comfortable enough to be worn continuously, sealed well enough to live against skin, and useful without anyone having to fetch a reading from it.

Our approach

The electronics and the enclosure were designed together. The housing is a sealed, rounded form with the sensing contact brought through to the body-facing side, so the part that has to touch skin is a deliberate feature of the mechanical design rather than something worked around afterwards.

Readings go straight to a mobile phone app over a wireless link, which removes the proprietary reader that devices like this often end up needing.

The data is logged rather than only displayed live, and the app can share that log onward — so the record can reach a clinician or a family member without anyone transcribing numbers.

The outcome

Thrmotrak monitors body temperature continuously and delivers it to a phone the wearer already carries, with a history that can be shared straight from the app.

It went the whole distance rather than stopping at a working prototype: a finished device in a moulded, branded enclosure, ready to manufacture.

It is the focused counterpart to our multi-parameter wrist-worn tracker — one measurement, done simply, in a package built to be worn and forgotten about.

Thrmotrak is a trademark of Rightventures.
