  • Patent number: 11555746
    Abstract: A remote temperature monitoring system includes a temperature monitoring device and a remote monitoring platform. The temperature monitoring system uses a temperature acquisition sensor to process collected temperature data in a single-chip microcomputer, and then the processed data information is transmitted to a computer by the single-chip microcomputer. Monitoring software is installed in the computer. After the software obtains the data, the data are parsed, and then a temperature-time map is presented in a visual interface. At the same time, the temperature monitoring device also transmits the parsed data to the remote monitoring platform, thereby realizing remote monitoring of temperature. The system integrates multi-channel acquisition, remote monitoring, timed temperature measurement, real-time mapping, data storage, temperature alarm and other functions into one.
