AMG8832EK - Evaluation Board, Infrared Grid-EYE Array Sensor

The GridEYE Sensor boards combines the versatility of the MEMs based sensor with Bluetooth enabled connectivity and the option of mounting the board on an Arduino DUE platform. With the combination of the hardware and software for IR detection of people and objects, users are able to develop prototypes and build their own wireless sensor 'Internet of Things' applications. The PC software and a Smartphone app (Android and iOS) provided allows customers to test the sensor in different ways with various innovative applications due to the simplicity of the evaluation kit. Grid-EYE is an infrared array sensor, first 64 pixel IR camera in an all-in-one SMD package, with thermopile elements in an 8x8 grid that detect absolute surface temperature without contact. The sensor can detect moving people and objects, as well as position and presence of motionless people and objects, the direction of movements and the accurate surface temperature from -20°C up to +100°C.
