Infrared Ear Thermometers Market Scope and Segmentation  

Market Definition

Infrared ear thermometer was created using cutting-edge infrared technology. This non-invasive digital thermometer is designed for quick and accurate measurements of human body temperature on adults and children. The infrared thermometer measures temperature using thermal radiation emitted by an object without touching the object's surface. Infrared technology is used in a variety of electronic devices, including cameras, sensors, and other remote-control devices.

Global Infrared Ear Thermometers Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Increasing incidence of covid-19 cases

The number of reported cases of COVID-19 reinfection is high. By measuring thermal radiation (infrared) emitted from the ear can infer body temperature. When using in-ear thermometers, each person should use a new ear-probe jacket, and the ear canal should be pulled straight for measurement. Rather than being used to diagnose, ear thermometers are used for screening. During COVID-19 the demand for ear thermometers are increased for infants, which propel the market growth.

• Convenience

Infrared ear thermometers measure temperature without coming into contact with a person's skin, reducing the possibility of cross-contamination significantly. While most digital thermometers require physical contact with the body to detect temperature, which is why infrared ear thermometers are preferred over traditional digital thermometers.

Opportunities

• Adoption of thermometers for industrial use

Infrared thermometers efficiency, accuracy and longevity have been critical factors in their popularity for industrial use. Various market vendors are focusing on providing solutions tailored to specific industries.

Tympanic thermometers, also known as digital ear thermometers, measure the temperature inside the ear canal using an infrared sensor and can provide results in seconds. The results will be accurate if it is used correctly. On the other hand, Ear thermometers, may not be as accurate as contact thermometers.

Restraints/Challenges

• Rising technical issues

Infrared ear thermometers cannot be used on infants under the age of six months, and the availability of alternative thermometers is likely to limit market growth. Rising technical issues, as well as product unavailability in emerging economies, are expected to impede the growth of the infrared ear thermometers market during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact on the Infrared Ear Thermometers Market

The COVID-19 outbreak has caused an unprecedented global public health crisis that has impacted virtually every industry. Its long-term consequences are expected to have an impact on industry growth during the forecast period. Temperature was a major predictor of coronavirus infection and was among other key indicators, so demand for thermometers increased in 2020. Authorities and healthcare professionals can now track temperature without risking infection from cross-contamination to forehead thermometers. In comparison to traditional mercury thermometers, digital thermometers have grown in popularity. The 2020 pandemic has favoured non-contact thermometers, causing a significant drop in demand over the last decade.
