Abstract

Thermo receptors are part of the human brain, which reflect differently with changed conditions. Thermo receptors are classified into two categories: Warm and cold thermo receptors. In this abstract, an acceptable temperature analysis incentive is used for measuring the warm and cold cup of coffee used by different age group individuals. Both of the thermo receptors perceive the feelings through the gird of cup that is applied on the palm of the hand. Thus, both cold and warm probes are used with different kinds of temperatures. The cold cup of coffee was about 50 degree Fahrenheit and the warm cup of coffee about 115 degree Fahrenheit. In this experiment, participants showed different responses and reactions to the cold and warm cup of coffee. We measured their responses by giving them questionnaires based on five Likert formula. The experiment assumes that the feelings of human beings can be judged by creating portrait and reverse situation.
