Bigger isn’t always better, especially when it comes to gadgets. Enter then, the InfiRay P2 Pro thermal camera. It claims to be the world’s smallest thermal camera and plugs right into your smartphone via the mini USB slot.
It weighs just 9g, and at a size of 27 x 18 x 9.8mm (about the diameter of a quarter at just over an inch in length), it is truly tiny. But why do you need a thermal camera on your smartphone anyway, aside from the mere fact that it’s pretty cool?
The Raspberry Pi is a wonderful thing, and we’ve seen many cool photography and video projects based around it. But thanks to the MLX90640 thermal camera module, you can turn the Pi into a fully-fledged thermal camera of your own with software you can customise to your own needs. And that’s exactly what Tom Shaffner did.
He built a thermal camera using this module and a Raspberry Pi and even wrote his own software for it. Fortunately, Tom made the software completely open-source and posted the code up to GitHub so you can have a go at making your own and even tailor the software to your own needs.
