the first thermometer invented by Galileo. There is a tube it which a liquid rises and falls as the temperature changes.

Used in the 17th century

invented in 1650

Mercury Themometers

The Mercury Thermometer was created by Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit. It was created in (1686-1736)

Fahrenheit Scale

This scale was created by Santorio Santorio, in 1561-1636.

The Reamur Scale

In 1731 the Frenchman, René Antoine Ferchauld de Réamur (1683-1757)

The Celsius Scale

Celsius chose 0 degrees for the boiling point of water, and 100 degrees for the freezing point. A year later, the Frenchman Jean Pierre Cristin (1683-1755) inverted the Celsius scale to produce the centigrade scale used today (freezing point 0°C, boiling point 100°C). By international agreement in 1948 Cristin’s adapted scale became known as Celsius and is still in use today.

Kelvin scale

Each division in the kelvin scale called a kelvin (K) is equal to a degree on the Celsius scale, but the difference is where zero is. In the Celsius scale 0^o is the freezing point of water while in the Kelvin scale the zero point is at absolute zero.it was invented 1848 by Sir William Thomson.

Digital infrared thermometer

You can use this in this thermometer for measuring temperature of things like meat or pizza. It was invented by Johann Seebeck, Macedoni Melloni, and Theodore Case. It was invented in 1901

Infrared Ear Thermometer

the infrared ear thermometer was invented by Dr.theodor H.Benzinger in 1964 it was designed to me to measure the temperature in the humans ear canal

Forehead Thermometer

In 1999, Dr. Francesco Pompei of the Exergen Corporation introduced the world's first temporal artery thermometer, a non-invasive temperature sensor which scans the forehead in about two seconds and provides a medically accurate body temperature.
