A thoughts don&;t argue with buyer it shows lack of professionalism.
Thanks TD for helding this contest here.

slow down REDA, next time don&;t pride with your 5 stars before the winner selected.

The winning design was submitted after the end of the contest "6 hours after the end"
or are sweet line called? it&;s anything you really done everything to discourage good designers .....

congrats RAVI

thank you all for the great contributions, I am sorry there could only be one winner in this case. it was a difficult choice.

Hi Troy,

Your contest was closed, that&;s why you couldn&;t select a winner. Anyway, you can try now.

Thanks,
Lucian

who is winner here?

Thank you to all contributors, I will be carefully reviewing the submissions over the next 2 days and will notify you as soon as possible. Thank you!

thank you for your feedback TD

we can tap power and communication from the headphone jack:

the earphone will not stay in place, it will only be used when taking the temperature.

almost all the designs submitted have some sort of LCD display, i will not need a display on any of these.

thanks,
TD

Another thought is how can the smart phone be the display unless you have a mini usb connection going to it with a corresponding smart phone app to translate the data? The headphone out can only transmit audio to the speaker.

So is this supposed to be a headphone that can actually stay in place like earbuds or does it have to physically be held up to the ear? It dont make any sense to be an earphone if it is only going to be used when taking temperature or inspecting ear?

@Antanas:

Using the right impedance matching, one can harvest power out of the audio-jack.

Hi All ,

5 BiG Stars Have you seen them?

1. I checked prices ~ Intel Bluetooth Modules 6,5 € at Mouser catalog http://eu.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Intel/PBA31308V202-S-LJYU/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMsGelYiB%252bjhZpS9PJgNT5YFsCHlUL5fw30QRa38VGf1iA%3d%3d

2. but the battery still need to use - for temperature sensor, LED&;s and data transfer to smart phone ...

bluetooth or wi-fi would be great, but then we need batteries. Also, the cost is a critical factor here, and the wireless portion is more expensive. Good suggestion though.

why you use a cable? - maybe better to connect thermometer with smart phone via Blootooth or WiFi?
