Temperature sensor assembly facilitating beam steering in a temperature monitoring network
A temperature sensor assembly can include a first temperature sensor that can be configured to obtain a first temperature measurement of a user. The temperature sensor assembly can further include a second temperature sensor that can be configured to obtain a second temperature measurement of the user. The temperature sensor assembly can further include one or more processors that can be configured to determine a third temperature measurement indicative of a temperature of the user based at least in part on the first temperature measurement and the second temperature measurement. The temperature sensor assembly can further include a base station communication antenna system that can include a modal antenna that can be configured to communicate the third temperature measurement with a base station based at least in part on a beam steering operation.
