Here’s a $120usd FLIR - how does it compare with a cheap plug in USB phone module? Guess it’s just missing a mounting case?
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·7 months agoCan you provide some links or something? I desire to own a thermal camera but they are just so expensive. I don’t need anything fancy but higher res would obviously be cooler.
