For more information on the new Arduino Nano thermal imaging camera jump over to the EEVBlog website for details and the Arduino code required to make your very own. Watch this video on YouTube.

The creator explains more about the inspiration behind his Arduino-powered 360-degree animal camera trap. Camera traps are a super useful tool for field biologists and conservationists!

You have to carefully look at [upir’s] Arduino thermal camera project because it intersperses pictures of what you expect an 8×8 sensor will produce with images produced by a much better camera.

This project uses a Raspberry Pi 2 or 3, an Arduino Uno, some servos, and a USB webcam. The end result is a camera mounted to the servo that’s controlled by the Arduino.
