Digital ear thermometers measure the infrared radiation coming from an eardrum.
An aural thermometer measures temperature by detecting infrared radiation emitted by the eardrum and ear canal. The device converts this radiation into a temperature reading, providing a quick and non-invasive way to determine body temperature.

What kind of thermometer you use to measure the body temperature
Temperature measured with the ear thermometer (tympanic membrane thermoemeter)
measure temperature? A thermometer.
Oral method: placing a thermometer under the tongue. Axillary method: placing a thermometer in the armpit. Tympanic method: using an ear thermometer to measure temperature in the ear canal. Rectal method: inserting a thermometer into the rectum for a core body temperature reading.
To take an aural temperature using a tympanic thermometer, gently insert the thermometer into the ear canal, aiming towards the eardrum. Press the button to initiate the temperature reading, and ensure a good fit for accurate results.
Aural temperatures are taken in the ear. This type of temperature taking is useful for the very young who cannot hold a thermometer in their mouth.
