A pill thermometer is an ingestible thermometer that allows a person's core temperature to be continuously monitored. It was developed by NASA in collaboration with Johns Hopkins University for use with astronauts.[1] Since then the pill has been used by mountain climbers,[2] football players, cyclists,[3] F1 drivers.[4] and in the mining industry.
The Thermometer Pill is currently manufactured by the company HQ Inc under the brand name CorTemp.[5]
