Newdealdesign partnered with san francisco company VivaLnk to create ‘fever scout’ – a flexible and soft wearable thermometer that helps parents and caregivers keep on top of a child’s temperature when they’re not feeling well.wirelessly connected to a smartphone using bluetooth technology, the device automatically and continuously measures temperature so parents can monitor their children and give them the best care possible. made for kids, ‘fever scout’ attaches securely with a gently removable adhesive strip, monitors temperature for up to a week on a full charge, is rechargeable and reusable. The flexible patch is playful and colorful and stands out to children and parents alike. while the physical design exceeds traditional medical device styles, it is also based on a strong technological understanding. separating bluetooth and sensors as far from one another as possible helps increase connection range and measurement efficacy, while color acts as a subtle cue indicating how to place the ‘fever scout’ for optimal monitoring.
