When automotive use for the Lepton 3 is posible, even though the 160x120 pixels may be a bit low, will the image suffer from shocks when driving?ģ. Teledyne FLIR Lepton FS offers a much more cost-effective solution with the non-radiometric 160 x 120 resolution micro thermal camera module going for 99, or about 50 less than other FLIR thermal camera modules. Is the Flir Lepton 3 module realy not a good idea to use as thermal imager in a car, using the 7" TFT screen of a 2DIN head unit to see the picture?Ģ. Thermal cameras based on FLIR Lepton modules are pretty cool, but also quite expensive. I can not understand, because this module is used on drones for long range thermal imaging from huge hights.ġ.

But they told me that this module may not be suitable for this purpose.
FLIR LEPTON CAMERA MODULE FULL
It provides a wide range of functionality from adjustable memory footprint size, adjustable temperature display mode, fast chip select enable/disable routines, to exposing the full functionality of the thermal camera itself. Lepton is a complete long-wave infrared (LWIR) camera module designed to interface easily into native mobile-device interfaces and other consumer electronics. I2C and SPI busses have been enabled trough raspi-config. This library allows communication with boards running a Lepton FLiR thermal camera module. I followed all official FLIR recomendations: connected Lepton module to Raspberry in the correct way (SPI0 port, CE0 as CS pin). I told them about my idea to use the Lepton 3 module and "Drone Thermal" pcb as an automotive thermal imager behind the grill of my car. I'm trying to use FLIR Lepton 3 module with Raspberry Pi 0 W board running Raspbian 9 Stretch. Found this Google Groups on Flir Lepton 3 modules, because I'm busy brainstorming if this module can be used as a more affordable Flir PathfindIR alternative.Ī local shop in drones and drone equipment sells the Flir Lepton 3 module as well as the Flytron "Drone Thermal" pcb with 12VDC input and PAL/NTSC output. We all know that getting thermal cameras that are based on FLIR Lepton modules can really be much of a budget to plan for if you’re considering getting one.
