Google Pixel 8 Pro is likely to come with a body temperature sensor

While we expected Google to preview the Pixel 8 series phones during the I/O 2023 event, it did not. But now it seems that we are facing the first real image of Google Pixel 8 Pro, which reports the presence of a thermometer to measure body temperature.

according to this pictureThe infrared thermometer sensor of Pixel 8 Pro is placed on the back panel next to the camera module and under the LED flash inside a circular element. This thermometer can measure the user’s body temperature and its function is similar to most non-contact thermometers.

Body temperature measurement sensor in Google Pixel 8 Pro

To use the Google phone thermometer, you should put it as close to your forehead as possible, but it should not come into contact with your skin. Next, you should press the start option and bring it close to your temple within 5 seconds. When the process of body temperature measurement is done, the phone vibrates and informs you about this.

Although it may be a simple process, you should note that the thermometer is located on the back panel and the start button appears on the screen. Based on current information, we are not facing a user-friendly way to measure body temperature by Google phone, however, maybe Google has considered a special trick for it.

It is expected that the Pixel 8 series phones, including the standard and Pro models, will be officially introduced in October. These products will be equipped with Tensor G3 chip and apparently the size of the screen of the Pro model will be smaller than the Pixel 7 Pro and equal to 6.52 inches. In the coming weeks, we should expect more reports and rumors about the Google Pixel 8 series phones.
