Single point thermal imaging camera made of infrared thermometer

Let me know your opinion and experience
since high resolution thermal imaging cameras are still expensive
so I plan to build a single point thermal imaging camera supported by mosaics scanning mechanics
to get high resolution thermal imaging



thank you

A single-point sensor will probably be big so have poor spatial
resolution. And scanning will be very slow.

Amazon has 256x192 thermal imager cameras, all done, starting around
$250. They probably don't focus close enough for electronics but that
could be fudged. Some software image enhancement might be possible.

We have two FLIRs. One was very expensive and has a huge
adjustable-focus germanium lens. It's fabulous for scoping
electronics.

Lens:

Dual NPN transistor, obviously not monolithic:

PCB inner-plane short:

(A bunch of amps burned that away.)


Our other IR imager was a gift from FLIR, a smaller fixed-focus thing,
pretty much useless for electronics:

I'd like to have a small handheld imager, but it needs to focus up
close, which most don't do.
