A dryer includes a cylinder, a heater, a motor, a temperature sensor and a controller. The heater heats air and delivers the heated air into the cylinder. The motor is used to drive the cylinder to rotate. The temperature sensor includes a thermopile array sensor and a signal processor. The thermopile array sensor is used to sense an infrared light radiated from clothing and output a sensing signal. The signal processor is used to process the sensing signal to obtain at least one of a temperature distribution uniformity and an average temperature of the clothing, and output a control signal according to the at least one of the temperature distribution uniformity and the average temperature of the clothing. The controller determines to stop the drying schedule according to the control signal. The above-mentioned dryer can stop the drying schedule automatically, so as to save energy.
