Using ESP32 linked to a PC via a coms port and using the Processing freeware - and writing code to enhance the pixilation by factor of x10 - greyscale images Cap-0 and Cap-1 are produced. Opening in paint.net and applying a Gaussian filter yields Cap-0A and Cap-B. These are first steps - hoping to increase the "resolution" still further.

Excellent bit of kit for the price. Easy to hook up and identify either using the software instructions on the page, or via other routes like I did - no issues at all getting it to pick up. The two sets of headers included is appreciated and made hooking up even easier.

Very speedy delivery - well done Pimoroni. The IR camera works well - I have used a Pi Zero to read I2C data from the camera and Display HAT Mini to render images. The project is a simple IR camera to help find thermal leaks from our house.

Best thermal camera that I could find in this price range with 32 x 24 pixels (the next closest is 8 x 8 pixels). I used mine to make a ghost busters ecto goggle headset - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bm6IWaHA0K4

Nice breakout but use with care! I wish the dead pixels were less prevalent, is this from the sensor itself or from the board implementation? We have between 2 and 3 dead pixels on the three boards we received.
