206x156 resolution (similar ball-park to $1500 thermal imagers)
Versions for iOS and Android phones.
Only $199.

I notice it says:-

Vanadium Oxide microbolometer
Chalcogenide lens

I think the typical $1000-$2000 kit from Fluke uses silicon sensors and germanium lenses and I assume Flir is similar too?

Any thoughts on what the catch is or whether this is likely to be any good?]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215800#Comment_215800 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215800#Comment_215800 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 12:04:20 +0000 ringi
I don't think it will allow you to find the lighting cables in your walls by looking for their heat output.

Likewise I expect you will not be able to see if a golf club scape the ground while someone took a shot.

The systems I wrote software for over 10 years ago could do both of the above, but they cost more then most new cars!]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215804#Comment_215804 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215804#Comment_215804 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 13:11:39 +0000 Ed Davies

It's possible to get hand-held projectors, I believe.]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215945#Comment_215945 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12931&Focus=215945#Comment_215945 Mon, 29 Dec 2014 08:58:28 +0000 danielbroad

the Kinect depth uses a CMOS sensor for IR so it will be short-wave (i.e, near) infrared. Totally useless for heat sensing:
