how well will this work capturing human body temperature from a distance of about 6 to 10 feet

I would think it will only give you the skin surface temperature rather than replacing a conventional thermometer, but it will give you a reading for sure, I've tried it.

I have an identical situation and it works very well at least 200 feet away. Hope this helps.

I can not find na correct answer to your question,on max distance for the sensors. I can tell you my experience,that the sensors I have do work at a distance of 50 feet with no problems. I think they may even work at a greater distance, if there was minimal interference. Remember, the temperature does changes at a slow rate. I hope this helps.

I think it should work just fine. I needed it for my patients. Had to return it, because thermometer has to be in the same environment for at least an hr to work properly. I keep driving between my patients and it did not work for me. Otherwise, at home it was fine.

Yes this should work fine since you have sufficient time window to obtain reading. I have used it to get reading of water temperature coming out of faucet and soups etc. Also used it for correct water temperature for yeast.

It's mounted 7'-10' high to be detected maximum distance up to 60'-70' (@75F or less). if just detects 10'-20' away that have to adjust sensitivity knob via clockwise to increase its sensing range.

I think this one should work in both hot or cold conditions. If the camera can take the temperature, the video head should be able to take it further.

I think it will keep you warm not sure about fit for physical activity though. The heat reflective technology is very effective.

Probably...the difficulty is going to be getting the sensor to be able to read something that is not static....but, will give you a general idea of the temperature, I think.

Yes. I use it send temperature data from an Arduino to an Android phone. It works great.

Yes it can. It will detect body heat only and large pets. I would avoid placing the sensor in direct sunlight. It will stay on from 10 to 15 seconds.

Yes, it would work for that application, but it would not be precise. However, it would likely be repeatable. Thermocouples have a poor signal to noise ratio below 150F. A better option would be an RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) sensor. They are designed to operate in the temperature range of a swimming pool. If you want to use a t/c (thermocouple) for a particular reason, choose a "type J" or a "type E" rather than the "type K" that comes with this device. A type-J has twice the sensitivity of a type-K.

less than 4ft. if it is long enough then it's worth it. I have not have overheating since using it.

Hi Victoria,I suppose the Weatherhawk MyBlue-T Monitor could be used to monitor body temperature. I never tried. You would have to to put it inside a body cavity. I think most women could do it easily. It is not so quick to respond to a new environment. I carry it in my bag and it takes about 20 minutes to read the actual room temperature. You have to be curious to see what it can do. I was disappointed that it does not give an instant stable reading when I change rooms. But pressed against the flesh it probably responds more quickly.I hope this answer is helpful,David

You should be able to do that as it is Bluetooth and should have a range of at least 10 feet.

I am not sure that would work. I think this device uses temperature changes to detect movement. For example, I have this right next to my front door. If I open the door (and it opens into the sensor) nothing happens, as soon as my body is clear from the door then the device detects something. Perhaps something using the contact closure module will be more effective.

i have used it about 12 feet away and it worked fine. It will go further then that.
