LEPTON CAMERA MODULE CODE
My version uses the VSYNC output from the Lepton to synchronize the VoSPI transfer as an experiment to increase the reliability of syncing a user-space process to the Lepton video stream.Ĭontains the code I wrote initially for a test platform based on the PJRC Teensy 3.2 board to learn about the Lepton. This directory contains the code supporting the camera and the re-targeting of my Solar Pi Platter as a power-management and expansion board for the Pocketbeagle.Ĭontains a modified version of Damien Walsh's great leptonic program running on the Raspberry Pi. The pocketbeagle was used for the final design of a thermal imaging camera. ESP32Ĭontains code, design information and supporting applications for a pair of cameras based around the ESP32.Ĭode for the Beaglebone Black including my initial PRU-based VoSPI video pipleline and LCD display.
The project process is documented at hackaday.io.
LEPTON CAMERA MODULE SERIES
tCam-Mini costs $64.99 and Lepton 3.5 costs $199.00 at GroupGets store.This repository contains code, libraries and hardware I developed over the course of making a series of thermal imaging cameras based on the FLIR Lepton 3.5 camera or module on many different platforms. More information on Lepton 3.5 and compatible development hardware can be found at this GroupGets post. Mechanical Interface: 32–pin socket interface to standard Molex® socket.Control Interface: CCI (I2C-like), CMOS IO Voltage Levels.Output Format: User-selectable 14-bit, 8-bit (AGC applied), or 24-bit RGB (AGC and colorization applied).Pixel Arrangement: 160 (H) × 120 (V) active pixels with progressive scan.
LEPTON CAMERA MODULE SOFTWARE
The 3.0 module is non-radiometric, while the 3. The wavelength of light in this range falls between 8 µm to 14 µm. FLIR Lepton 3.0 and 3.5 Micro Thermal Camera Modules offer 160 x 120 active pixels and <50mK thermal sensitivity in a small 11.8mm x 12.7mm x 7.2mm package. It functions just like a camera module inside a smartphone but captures light in the Infrared (IR) region of the electromagnetic spectrum. TCam-Mini Thermal Imaging Module in action Infrared Radiometry and Lepton 3.5įlir Lepton 3.5 is a radiometric capable Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) camera module from the Lepton series. You can buy tCam-Mini and camera modules from GroupGets store. You have to buy the camera module separately when you buy the tCam-Mini. The tCam-Mini is a carrier and processor board that has a compatible socket for Lepton 3.5. It has a form-factor and mechanical interface to be easily installed onto a side-contact socket. Lepton 3.5 has 19,200 (160×120) pixels that can capture IR radiation in the temperature equivalent range of -10˚ to +400˚C. The firmware is written using ESP-IDF and can be flashed to the module via USB. The project is completely open source and the hardware and software files can be downloaded from Dan’s GitHub repository. As the name suggests, tCam-Mini is a smaller subset of the fully featured design called tCam which is currently under development. The project was successfully funded and the campaign ended on 07 April 2021. tCam-Mini was crowd funded and launched through Hackster Launch programme by Hackster.io and GroupGets. The fully open source project is based on Espressif’s ESP32 Wi-Fi module and FLIR‘s thermal imaging camera module Lepton 3.5. TCam-Mini is a wireless thermal imaging camera designed by Dan Julio from Colorado, USA.
