Is this a cool thing? A self-made thermal imaging camera! For only a few bucks! Sounds marvelous. Because recently lower cost sensors appeared on the market this seems to be possible.
Today we will see where we can use them and if they are worth the money.
We will compare the following sensors:
– We will start with the ordinary PIR sensor with 1 pixel
– And continue with the AMG8833 which has 8×8 pixels
– The next is the MLX90640 with 32×24 pixels
– And the last is a Flir One 160×120 pixels camera which has to be mounted on a smartphone
And we will use an M5Stack to build a camera using Arduino IDE
