Abstract
An ear thermometer capable of identifying an infrared transmittance of a probe cover is provided and includes an ear thermometer body, a probe, and a plurality of activation elements. The probe is disposed on the ear thermometer body. A closed end of the probe cover is used for infrared transmittance, and the probe cover has different infrared transmittances according to a thickness variation thereof. The activation elements are disposed on the ear thermometer body and configured to detect the infrared transmittance of the probe cover. Each of the activation elements includes an ON state and an OFF state so that the activation elements are arranged to form different sensor combinations, which respectively correspond to different infrared transmittances, and any two of the different sensor combinations have the two corresponding infrared transmittances that are different from one another.
