Kinsa: Smart thermometer for your iPhone


An American company called Kinsa presents its " Kinsa Smart thermometer", a thermometer module that connects to an iPhone (for now). 

How it works? Simple, the smart thermometer should be connected to your iPhone in order to measure the temperature of the user, but also to share (anonymously, let's hope so) with friends of the Kinsa community. It also invites the user to share its data with other users! 

The concept is explained on their website: it must allow its users to know of any possible epidemics nearby. The app allows you to upload videos and photos, in order to transmit the symptoms by image to a doctor. A feature also allows you to find medical centers nearby. The thermometer is not yet available for sale, Kinsa still seeks funds for the launch at the end of the year. This cool gadget will cost about 30$. You can download the app which will let you know when it will be available and also advise you of any epidemics near by.
