What is it?

The Type-C Infrared Thermal Camera is a cutting-edge device designed to turn your Android phone into a powerful thermal imaging tool. It features a compact, high-performance infrared camera that connects via a Type-C port to provide accurate temperature measurements. With a resolution of 32x32, it is a highly portable and versatile device suitable for various applications such as electronics development, PCB testing, thermal construction work, and non-contact temperature measurement in industrial and scientific settings.

Why did we make it?

We developed this product with DIY engineers, hobbyists, and professionals in mind who need a portable and easy-to-use thermal camera solution. We recognized that traditional thermal cameras can be bulky and expensive, and often require dedicated hardware and specialized software. Our goal was to create an affordable, compact, and easy-to-use infrared camera that fits seamlessly into the DIY community’s toolkit, offering a solution for both casual and professional users who need to measure temperature without physical contact. Whether for prototyping, troubleshooting, or research, the Type-C Infrared Thermal Camera enhances efficiency and accuracy on the go.

What makes it special?

Compact and Portable:

Weighing only 10 grams and measuring 44 x 29.2 x 19mm, this infrared thermal camera is ultra-portable. Its size makes it convenient to carry in your pocket, bag, or toolbox, ensuring you always have access to professional-grade thermal imaging when you need it.

Easy Setup and Use:

This device is plug-and-play. Simply connect the camera to your Android phone’s Type-C port and download the companion app via a QR code or direct link. The app is intuitive, offering a simple interface that allows users to start measuring temperatures immediately without complicated setup procedures.

Wide Temperature Range:

With a temperature measurement range from -20℃ to 1000℃, this thermal camera covers a broad spectrum of use cases. Whether you are monitoring electrical circuits, measuring the heat distribution in machinery, or even checking for insulation issues in construction, this camera ensures reliable temperature readings across a vast range of conditions.

Multiple Color Palettes and Temperature Scales:

The thermal camera offers five color palettes including Iron Red, Rainbow, White Hot, Blue-Orange, and Blue-Yellow, so you can choose the one that best suits your application. You can also adjust the temperature scale (from -20℃ to 1000℃) to match the specific range you’re working with, ensuring that the thermal camera adapts to your project’s requirements.

Precise Temperature Accuracy:

Achieving temperature accuracy within ±3℃, this thermal camera delivers consistent and reliable temperature readings, making it ideal for sensitive electronics testing, circuit board inspections, and even detecting hot spots in electrical systems or mechanical components.

Emissivity Adjustment for Accuracy:

Emissivity is the property of a surface that affects its ability to emit infrared radiation. Our infrared thermal camera allows users to adjust the emissivity setting, giving you precise temperature readings for different materials and surface types. You can rely on accurate temperature data, whether you're working with metals, plastics, or other materials.

Image Capture and Storage:

With an integrated photo capture function, you can take snapshots of the thermal images and save them for later review. This feature is particularly useful for documenting inspection results, troubleshooting processes, or sharing data with others for analysis.

Android Compatibility (Android 8.0 - 12):

This thermal camera is compatible with Android phones running versions 8.0 to 12, ensuring broad compatibility with most modern Android devices. Its Type-C connection provides fast data transfer, and the app supports image storage directly on your phone for easy access and management.

Energy-Efficient:

Powered by a single CR2032 battery, the camera operates without the need for an external power source, making it perfect for fieldwork, outdoor environments, or situations where a power outlet is unavailable. The CR2032 battery can last for months, ensuring you’re always ready when you need it.

Wide Application Scope:

The Type-C Infrared Thermal Camera is perfect for a variety of professional fields. Engineers can use it for testing printed circuit boards (PCBs) for heat spots, builders and construction workers can use it for detecting insulation problems, and DIY electronics enthusiasts can troubleshoot and test devices more efficiently. Its versatility also extends to applications such as home maintenance, automotive diagnostics, and even medical use, offering a wide range of uses in both professional and DIY projects.
