Body temperature measurement device

A body temperature measurement apparatus, comprising:

• a holding mechanism configured to be mounted on a measurement target person;
• a first temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a left side of a nose root portion of the measurement target person;
• a second temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a right side of the nose root portion of the measurement target person;
• a third temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a nose top portion of the measurement target person;
• a fourth temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a glabella of the measurement target person;
• a fifth temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a back side of a right ear helix of the measurement target person;
• a sixth temperature sensor in the holding mechanism and configured to measure a temperature of a back side of a left ear helix of the measurement target person;
• a processing circuit configured to acquire measurement values from the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the third temperature sensor, the fourth temperature sensor, the fifth temperature sensor, and the sixth temperature sensor;
• a transmission circuit configured to transmit the measurement values acquired by the processing circuit to a set transmission destination;
• and
• a power supply circuit configured to supply a supply voltage to the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, the third temperature sensor, the fourth temperature sensor, the fifth temperature sensor, the sixth temperature sensor, the processing circuit, and the transmission circuit.
