Non-Contact Thermometer, Group 3 ECE342-W22

This is a non-contact thermometer that intends to let the users easily measure their temperature and be notified if they were to have a fever. Some of the core functioning modules of this device are the sensor module, LCD module, and notification module. More specifically, the implemented sensor module uses an infrared sensor that is later configured and calibrated using a calibration curve. And the LCD and notification module simply communicates with the microcontroller and performa any designated action according to the measured temperature from the sensor module. One of the notable achievements in this project is the accuracy of the sensor; the calibration curve was created through collecting data points using an actual thermometer, and the resulting sensor was able to be calibrated to an accuracy within less than 1 degree. This was also one of the main challenges within the project, as the calibration equation actually went through multiple iterations and most of them experienced a drop in performance as days passed on. One of the areas that could be improved in the future would be the logging system, and potentially have it be able to streamline some external display device; as the current logging system simply logs the temperature data onto a SD card, it is not really easy for the user to access their temperature data.
