The SensWear MAX30208 temperature daughter board enables high-accuracy skin and body temperature monitoring for continuous wearable sensing applications. Built around the MAX30208 clinical-grade temperature sensor, this module delivers precise, low-noise temperature measurements optimized for on-body and near-body sensing scenarios. It integrates seamlessly with the SensWear mainboard via I²C, allowing synchronized acquisition alongside motion, optical, and contextual sensor data.

This daughter board supports a wide range of physiological and environmental monitoring use cases, including skin temperature tracking, circadian rhythm analysis, recovery and stress monitoring, and early detection of illness or fever patterns. In research settings, continuous temperature data can be used for metabolic modeling, sleep analysis, thermoregulation studies, and multimodal health monitoring when fused with PPG, motion, and contextual signals.

Beyond standard health metrics, the sensor enables exploration of advanced applications such as cycle tracking, readiness estimation, thermal comfort monitoring, and longitudinal health analytics. Its high resolution and low power consumption make it suitable for long-term continuous monitoring in compact wearable form factors.

Compact and energy-efficient, the MAX30208 temperature daughter board expands the SensWear ecosystem with reliable thermal sensing, enabling researchers and developers to build next-generation wearable health and human-centric sensing applications.
