Sometimes a device doesn’t do quite what one needs, and in those cases a bit of tampering might do the trick. That’s what led to being able to record video …read more Continue reading Hacking a Thermal Imager for Dual-use of the Thermal Sensor
Under the right circumstances, Gaussian blurring can make an image seem more clearly defined. [DZL] demonstrates exactly this with a lightweight and compact Gaussian interpolation routine to make the low-resolution thermal sensor data display much better on a small OLED.
[DZL] used an MLX90640 sensor to create a DIY thermal …read more
[Niklas Roy] has always wanted to try out thermal imaging and saw his opportunity when he received one of those handheld IR thermometers as a gift. But not content with just pointing it at different spots and looking at the temperatures on the LCD display, he decided to use it as the basis for a scanning, thermal imaging system that would display a heat map of a chosen location on his laptop.
He still wanted to to be able to use the IR thermometer as normal at a later date so cutting it open was not an option. Instead he …read more
