DIY Thermal Camera with AMG8833

[@dantedamean]

“We’re not going to talk about that today” 😒 that’s what I’ve been looking for 😂

[@FixitFrank]

Very cool! thermal cams are indispensable for troubleshooting the power supplies and mainboards I work on. As well as figuring out what windows in the house needed attention. This is so awesome man. If you need a cheap, USBC version , look for the HT102 series. There are others made with the same package. Thanks for making this video

[@EEforEveryone]

Hello FixitFrank! Great idea with the (HT102) as a higher-resolution option, I think the flir one is slightly more expensive. I was so surprised at how quickly this project came together, and can't agree more on how useful thermal cameras are!

[@CommanderKlag]

What gave you the idea that this is anything except a toy.

Dude you desrve billions of subscribers 🥺🥺🥺,hatsoff to your consistency

[@EEforEveryone]

Thank you Sameer!, maybe some day!

[@mijalic1]

Great presentation. Thank you for your time and effort to make this video and share it with us. Greetings from Croatia

[@lukereece6421]

I’m gonna try to engineer two of these into a virtual reality-style goggle and create low power thermal imaging goggles

[@huinyavaina]

Why? Wanna see the world like this toothy "Predator" did in the old movie?

[@forestnfren8146]

how good of a sensor can you buy?

[@md.mostafakhan4529]

Awesome little tool, almost.

[@EEforEveryone]

Aha! I'm sure I'll find a way to put this to use. :) Thanks for watching!

[@en2oh]

Next step, Lepton sensors? 👍

[@ryanjohnson9325]

Should've used a higher res sensor. I don't know what the use case is for such poor resolution. But appreciate the video anyhow!

[@jessedavis6196]

is there a way to use Arduino to upgrade the pixelation to any lcd? or does it have to be done with the M5?

[@gervasiodejesusadelinomagu9476]

Hello! I am planning to develop a project to map sweet potato in the soil. So, how can I connect MLX90640 (thermal camera), OV7670 (normal camera) and arduino to be visualized on LCD? Thank you in advance!

[@planapearson1857]

Please review this on the basis of how it can see hot spots on the circuit boards. 👍

[@EEforEveryone]

Great idea! I know it's made a couple appearances, to be honest, I think hybrid imaging works really well for circuit board thermal analysis. It's really hard to imagine what component you're looking at with this low resolution.

[@whitekanyewestthebully1346]

Hey, I just saw your video you should try this on a pi zero there still small and cheap and might give better resolution

[@DiyintheGhetto]

Hello how far from the sensor can it pick you up?

[@EEforEveryone]

Hello! The adafruit listing claims up to about 7 meters of range.

[@Tuto_17]

can i use 4 AMG.. to have better resolution, i am searching a cheap thermal camera at least 50 metters, thx

[@EEforEveryone]

Of course, it's possible to use multiple sensors, but I think aligning them will be a challenge. For example, if you align them so the sensors make a perfect grid at 1 foot away, the sensors will overlap and measure some of the same areas when measuring objects farther away. yikes! It's probably best to use a single higher-resolution IR camera! I know there are some decent ones that are made to work with a smartphone!

[@toto6toto]

Can you do M5stack combined with flir lepton 3.5? Its alot better resolution.

[@mohamedshameer4786]

Amazing, I'm a student I have a small project about thermal camera so I like to know how to make? And plz send me list like (breadboard, jumber wirs..... like) I hope u will reply soon Thank u

[@EEforEveryone]

Hello mohamed, cheers, and thank you for the comment! There are many guides to follow, but this one from adafruit is pretty simple, with a wiring example. I hope this helps! learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-amg8833-8x8-thermal-camera-sensor/arduino-thermal-camera

Luka, you're the real MVP. Thank you!

You may reduce the bg music pretty distracting :(

Does it have range to find water leaks in house

[@EEforEveryone]

Hi DJ, I'm not sure... it's range is pretty good, but resolution isn't great. You may be interested in this, but I've seen some IOT moisture sensors that are pretty cheap. Not great for finding new leaks, but could be helpful near common failures (valves, water heaters, HVAC, etc) They generally use stainless steel contacts and can talk Zwave or Wifi. You may want to consider the FLIR phone add-on cameras as well, very cheap for what they do! For example: FLIR ONE Gen 3

[@garciamelaiza5334]

how long it can detect distance???

[@blackops84321]

Just to help the people. Keep your volume down, he gets way to excited and loud. Just trying to help you to not get your ears blown out.

[@jogomez1988a]

where did you buy it? Nice

[@EEforEveryone]

Aha, all over the place. I got most of the parts from Amazon... because that gets things to your door fast in the US. :)

[@lordfarquaadgaming9316]

All you need now is a gimbal some servos and an arduino

[@DustinApple]

Well that's pretty useless.

[@EEforEveryone]

Hi Dustin.. I have to admit that the resolution isn't great. Considering it's running on an arduino compatible though... I'm still impressed! Won't be taking down flir any day soon. :)

[@DustinApple]

@@EEforEveryone sorry. I'm just searching for information. I'm hoping to find something 625x480 that I can run on a monitor on a boat or semi mobile. Its a long story but I fish looking for ripples on top of the water at night. Just trying to avoid spending 5k without knowing my idea will work out. Thanks

[@parshvapatel8484]

EEforEveryone what is study called that you can do this

[@NonnofYobiznes]

Cool, but the quality...

[@EEforEveryone]

so true. Better than a swift kick to the head.. but a higher resolution will be very nice.

[@NonnofYobiznes]

@@EEforEveryone I have an actual thermal flir camera I was lucky to get a hold of. I wish I had your know how. I'd turn it into a night vision for the car... that'd be super cool... 😅

[@EEforEveryone]

Ooh, flirs are great. Aha! Night vision for a car is a great idea! You'll get there soon for sure. :)

[@hf117j]

@@NonnofYobiznes I would just get a high resolution camera without the ir filter, add a visible light filter, hook it up to either your phone using a hud app or something similar. You may want to double check that you don't need a UV filter or anything like that. I haven't studied enough to be an expert. Don't forget IR illumination. Check laws to see if it's legal

[@CommanderKlag]

It seems that you are strongly indicating that this is not much more than a toy. After watching this video, I still know nothing about this product. Why did you just personally play with it? 2mm from an object, is that it's total range? Get over the Oh, it's so cool. That does not describe the product. I'm glad you were so excited over it. But it would have been nice to know something about it. Is a laugh all it's good for, just to play with? You made it look like a childs toy. Maybe thats what you were tryng to communicate. But, now I've got to try to find a real review that actually gives some information about it's specs, range, applications, datasheet etc. etc. But at least I know a toy exists that can do something with IR. I'm glad you were excited over it but that's personal, and made for a disappointing video for people who needed info on the product. Unless it's just a toy with poor abilities. Otherwise, you described it perfect. It's just a toy.

[@samsen3965]

11:17 WTH? Pervert! I'm on my way to report you to YT for this Indecent exposure... That to without any disclaimer, warning, R rating notice, etc!

[@EEforEveryone]

Aha! Sam, I love this!!! Made me laugh. Yeah, I'm not sure about how the rules change when a thermal camera gets involved 😂. Cheers!

Not to be mean and nothing personal. But dude.. please fix the way you talk on video.. your "uh's" "uhm's" and those small breaks between getting to the point.. it's quite annoying when this happens I'm very sure the crowd would agree. Have a nice day. And bro, nothing personal. Keep on keepin on soldier!
