Temperature Sensing

To further increase the function of the MediBuddy we determined that temperature sensing would be a useful vital to collect. We chose to use the GY-906 MLX90614ESF Non-contact Infrared Temperature Sensor. This sensor communicates via I2C protocol similarly to how our other sensor works and is able to collect ambient and object sensor of what is in it's view.
