Description
It's like a thermal camera, only at a lower resolution. To make it even easier to get your low-resolution infrared image, all communication is exclusively through I²C, using our convenient Qwiic system. However, we still have 0.1"-spaced pins if you prefer using a breadboard.
The AMG8833 Grid-EYE from Panasonic has an accuracy of ±2.5°C with a temperature range from 0°C to 80°C. Moreover, this IR 'camera' board can detect human body heat at about 7 meters or less and has a frame rate of 10 frames per second to one frame per second. It is important to point out that, although this version of the Grid-EYE is the most powerful type with high gain, it only tolerates 3.3 V.
