Grove_IR_Matrix_Temperature_sensor_AMG8833 Build Status ==================

Introduction of sensor

The AGM8833 is a high Precision Infrared Array Sensor based on Advanced MEMS Technology.

Usage

Download all the source files.
There are three examples for user.

  • exambles/basic_demo.ino,From this example,you can get the 64 channels(8X8) IR sensor raw data from serial-watch-window.
  • exambles/TFT_screen_demo.ino,From this example,we use a TFT screen to show the 8X8 matrix data,Different data map different colors.So we can make a simple、low resolution thermal imaging display system.Through this visual interface, you can see the results very intuitively
  • exambles/thermal_cam_interpolate/thermal_cam_interpolate.ino,Use an interpolation algorithm to extend an 8X8 resolution gragh to a 32X32 resolution gragh.But this example need more ram memory,doen't support the small ram arduino board like UNO.but ATmega2560 is OK. By the way ,the TFT screen library does not support arduino M0,if you want to use arduino M0,you should find another screen.

In addition:

There is a INT pad on Seeed's AMG8833 module,This pad correspond to INT pin,when sensor generate a interruption(usually the temperature beyond limit),The pin turns to low,Otherwise stays high.Without this INT pin,you need to polling for sensor result value.
