New DroneThermal - Smallest Thermal Camera for Drones

Posted by Melih Karakelle on February 11, 2016 at 5:00am

3689680781?profile=originalHi Everyone,


After 5 months of design and test process, new DroneThermal v022016 thermal camera boards are ready to announce. 
This is probably the smallest analog (PAL/NTSC) thermal camera in the world. 

Dimensions : 20mm x 20mm x 15mm (included Lepton 25 degrees core)
Weight: 3 grams
Resolution: 80x60 pixel.


I'm building a new FPV microquad and a rover for videos. I hope weather will be better in following days for outdoor videos.

    Look awesome and the price is reasonable too!

    Thanks for the comments :)

    @Dave
    There is no restriction for Lepton cores. They are less than 110.000 pixel and refresh rates less than 9Hz. That's mean, they are not in military restriction range.

    @Patrick
    The resolution is same because of core. But, Sparkfun selling a board to access Lepton IO pins included power supply. It's a development board. This is a plug and play camera including own processor, firmware and video output.

    How would this compare to the Sparkfun Lepton development kit ?
    Except for the obvious interface difference between SPI and Analog i/o

    That's really cool.  I want one!

    Melih, will the V3 cores be available for Canadian import? Or will they be restricted? Thanks!

    Very interesting. This could be beneficial for close quarters and sub-canopy level flights for search and rescue and life detection applications.

    Very interesting! Keep us posted!

    Nice and compact design! The v3 looks like the one to get.
