digital thermometers
Numeric temperature readers
Digital thermometers measure temperature and display the reading as a number on a screen, rather than through a rising column of liquid.
They're faster and easier to read than traditional mercury or alcohol thermometers: The digital thermometer beeped when it was done.
Common in medical, cooking, and weather applications.
