Accurate AI Thermometer App for Estimating Water Temperature
AI Thermometer is a free Android app developed by Petter Säterskog. This innovative utility falls under the category of Utilities & Tools and offers a unique way to estimate the temperature of water by analyzing the pouring noise when hot water is poured into a cup.
The app boasts an accuracy of ±4 degrees under optimal conditions, although the accuracy may be slightly lower in general. It performs better at higher temperatures, making it particularly useful for brewing different teas at their correct temperatures. However, it is important to note that AI Thermometer is not intended for use with temperatures below 50°C (122°F).
AI Thermometer provides a visual representation of a probability distribution and offers an 80% confidence interval for the estimated temperature. The accuracy of the temperature estimation depends on factors such as the vessel used, pouring technique, and background noise. The probability distribution has been verified across a wide range of setups, but it assumes a prior distribution of pouring setups.
This app utilizes a pre-trained machine learning model to analyze the pouring noises and estimate the water temperature. The longer you pour, the more noise the app receives, which leads to better temperature estimates.
