The module is compatible with all modular OpenMV Cam base boards.
The FLIR® Lepton® Adapter Module allows your OpenMV Cam to interface with the FLIR® Lepton® 1/2/3 Thermal Imaging sensors for Thermal Vision applications.
The actual FLIR® Lepton® Camera Sensor is sold separately which you can buy at the GroupGets Store. The FLIR® Lepton® Camera Sensor modules are export controlled so it's difficult for anyone but GroupGets to sell them.
By using thermal imaging, your OpenMV Cam can see in the dark in conditions with no external lighting. FLIR® Lepton®s are extremely useful for tracking living things in environments and for measuring the temperature of objects.
Our API allows you to get either an AGC image, which can be used for computer vision but lacks exact thermal values, or a direct thermal image in which pixel values map directly to temperature. For the direct-mapped image, you must set a minimum and maximum temperature, which are used to clamp and scale all temperature values to the 0-255 grayscale pixel range. A color palette can be optionally applied in either mode to get a colorful image.
V2 Improvements over the V1:
I get around 8.5 and I think docs say that it's a max due to exportability concerns, TAR EAR, something...
The FLIR Lepton 1 does 27 FPS but 1/3rd the frames are repeat frames. The FLIR Lepton 3 does 9 FPS but sends no repeat frames.
