They are already out, you can find them on amazon. I was considering buying one that hooks up to the USB of the phone, but decided to go with a stand alone unit.
Now you have me wanting. I totally need to scan my doors and windows, our house is so old I can see gaps but this would quantify the loss far better. Bet it would pay for itself in a couple years on lessened heating costs.
Hah nice, yeah I think you are right. Finding all the cracks in the windows and doors once I patch them up I will save alot on our heating bill and basically pay off this device.
This is so cool! I learned so much in just a day of reading post here in Hive. Earlier I learned about blue hour and now a thermal camera to check if heart's escaping! Should be reading more.
Those Flir cameras are bad ass!! We have on at work… I’m gonna say it’s a pretty high-end model since one of our brainiac engineers was involved. We use it to look for bad connections on the powerlines. Like in substations and what not. A bad connection will generate excessive heat (you know that😉) and eventually fail when loaded up with a bunch of amps.
Oh sweet, yeah I bet they are quite useful in your line of work. I plan on checking my wiring as well, maybe I can find some lose wires on light switches and outlets due to the heat as well.
Oh man, please tell me you're going to do a post wherein you scan over some of your hives with this! I've always wondered what a beehive would look like under thermal imaging (we had bees growing up so I had a lot of time to ponder things like that).
I believe FLIR is coming to mobile phones soon.

There are add-ons, but I'm talking native to like an iPhone or Google Android phone, in a few years they will likely be added to a few of them.
Cool!!! Hahaha... another toy!!!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Hah yeah glad to finally get one, and to share what I find with it with Hive.
You too! Hope you had a good one.

Any idea how the phone versions stack up? If it has the same sensors I would think it should be pretty comperable.
Yes new toy Solo!!
Looks like it is rather sturdily built too. Should be some fun finding uses for that and I am looking to hearing about it in the weeks to come.
Find some fun stuff to do so we all want to get one!
It does seem well built, but I plan on keeping it in its carrying case mostly.
Yeah I will document my findings about the windows and doors and make another post.
Love Your Christmas Avatar!!
hehe thanks.. one of my Hive Punks.

Oh good idea! Well its a little too cold right now to open the hive but I will keep that in mind for when I can.
That would be awesome! Hopefully this spring / early summer!

Wow! It's really awesome, am just learning about a thermocamera for the first time.
thanks alot, yeah it is pretty cool. Going to do some follow up posts about it soon.
I can't wait to see your next post about it.
