MLX90640 Thermal Camera Breakout (55)

Description

• MLX90640 Thermal Camera Breakout (55)
• Offers 32 x 24-pixel thermal camera
• Provides reverse polarity protection
• Monitors the temperature of the CPU or coffee pot
• Works with Raspberry Pi or Arduino
• Interface: I2C

The MLX90640 Thermal Camera Breakout (55)is perfect for building into projects – industrial, scientific, or just fun – and much more affordable than most thermal cameras. This breakout makes it easy to use the camera with your Raspberry Pi or Arduino, using I2C and 3-6V supply. It comes with a 55 (standard) field of view.

The MLX90640 far-infrared camera is an array of 768 (32×24) thermal sensors that can detect temperatures from -40 to 300 C with approximately 1 C accuracy and up to 64FPS!

The applications of this camera are manifold: measure the heat or heat dissipation of devices like CPUs, circuit boards, or electrical appliances; use it to identify thermal inefficiencies in your home, or use it for presence detection to identifying bodies in complete darkness.
