Abstract(in English) In recent years, we are required to manage physical condition, especially body temperature because of the epidemic of infectious disease. Body temperature is measured in such as the armpit, sublingual, and auditory canal, but it is not easy to continue the measurement everyday. In order to measure body temperature continuously for a long time, it is necessary to have a method that can measure body temperature in daily activities without awareness of the person. In this study, we experimented to estimate body temperature using the thermal uroflowmeter we are developing. The tympanic temperature measured before urination was compared with the temperature obtained from the thermal uroflowmeter. As a result, a weak positive correlation was obtained between the skin surface temperature near the thigh and tympanic temperature.
