  • Forum Post: Temperature Sensor - Distance Sensitive

    Arman Sam
    Hi I need to use a temperature sensor, which is highly distance sensitive. I want to measure human body's temperature, and I want to have different values for different distances like 5 or 10 cm. and I want the signal to be transferred to my computer. Any Suggestions? Thanks.
