IoT project using thermal sensors to monitor spaces

Published on: 2025-06-27 03:26:15

Real-time IoT devices need real-time action, and wrangling hog loads of data from these devices requires a simple and fast streaming pipeline. Make the data durable, and you can easily have multiple consumers that don’t skip a beat. POV: You have a shared space with your housemates and want to know if it's empty, but in the least privacy-invasive way. The Recipe: AMG8833 an infrared thermal imaging sensor – 8x8 array of infrared sensors, totaling 64 pixels measuring temperatures ranging from 0°C to 80°C (32°F to 176°F) ±2.5°C (4.5°F) up to 7 meters (23 feet) away at a max frame rate of 10 Hz . Cheap, and best for our use case as it covers a large area with a relatively high accuracy. an infrared thermal imaging sensor – 8x8 array of infrared sensors, totaling measuring temperatures ranging from up to away at a max frame rate of . Cheap, and best for our use case as it covers a large area with a relatively high accuracy. Raspberry Pi 4B or just any low-cost, single-board computer. ... Read full article.
