With the Medisana ThermoDock® a healthcare provider is one step closer to having a medical toolkit like Dr. McCoy on Star Trek. The ThermoDock provides reliable and accurate measurement of body temperature with non-contact infrared technology and plugs into an iPhone®, iPod touch® or iPad® — at a safe distance from flu germs, grumpy children, and steaming coffee mugs. Although a certified medical device and typically pointed at a forehead, this gadget can also be used to check the ambient temperature of a room or the great outdoors and has a memory for storing multiple user profiles. The ThermoDock works with the free VitaDock® app to track data and the hardware component costs less than $100.
