As with most cheap imported gadgets, the GY-MCU90640 module that bought came with some crusty Windows software which wasn’t going to do him much good on the Raspberry Pi. Of course, you probably wouldn’t be seeing this on Hackaday if all he had to do was just buy a module and solder it to the Pi’s header. There isn’t even any wiring involved, the camera fits right on the Pi’s GPIO header. His build only has two components: a Raspberry Pi and a thermal camera module he picked up online for about $80 USD. While it might not be the prettiest build, we think you’ll agree it can’t get much easier than what has put together. Well, today might be the day you were waiting for. So you just keeping waiting and hoping that eventually they’ll drop to the price that you can actually own one yourself. You don’t really know what you would do with one, and when even the cheap ones are a couple hundred dollars, it’s a bit out of the impulse buy territory. Thermal cameras are one of those tools that we all want, but just can’t justify actually buying.
