Always having a thermometer with you is not the most practical solution, it must be admitted. And the situation could even be rather strange if you regularly took it out to take the temperature.

One problem with this type of sensor when placed on the wrist is that the measurement is not the most reliable. Simply because your body temperature in that particular location can be affected by a number of third-party factors, such as outside temperature, if you exercise, etc. The report claims that this is one of the reasons why Samsung does not integrated such a sensor into its previous smartwatches.

However, it appears that the South Korean firm has improved its technology enough to provide more reliable measurements. At the moment, no one knows how it all works, but if the information is confirmed, this could be a very interesting feature that can be worn on the wrist every day. It could also allow smartwatches to go even further as an aid in monitoring the overall health of young and old.
