The M5Stack Thermal Camera Unit is an infrared thermal imaging Unit for the human body. Built-in MLX90640 thermopile sensor, capable of measuring the surface temperature of objects and generating a thermal image (image resolution 32 x 24) based on the temperature gradient formed by the surface temperature.

The MLX90640 infrared (IR) sensor array features high resolution and reliable operation in harsh environments. Compared with expensive high-end thermal imagers, this Unit is a cost-effective alternative.

Unlike ordinary microbolometers, this sensor has the advantage of not requiring frequent recalibration, thus ensuring detection continuity and reducing system maintenance costs. Field of view offers a wide-angle version (110°×75°), I2C address is 0x33.
