Martin SutherlandSo, I rented a FLIR thermal imaging camera for the weekend, for the serious purpose of checking the windows and overall insulation of our house.
But you can also take cat pictures with this thing.
myrmepropagandistI really want one to look at ant colonies and see how they manage heat. Despite not being "warm blooded" they find ways to make their nests warm in winter and cooler in summer.
draeath@futurebird @sunpig one of my colleagues has one that docks to his iPhone (they make android ones too), "only" a hundred or two for a decent one! (he has it for electrical work, looking for hot wires/breakers and such)
I really really really want a wearable FLIR. Something about the thought of seeing the world in a different spectrum while in otherwise total darkness does things to my reptile brain.
@draeath @futurebird Tempting!
MattChippytea@sunpig @draeath @futurebird take a look at the Thermal Master cameras. Their entry level unit is very affordable and much better than the FLIR One.
