Evaluation Kit for AMG8834 High Precision Infrared Array Sensor based on Advanced MEMS Technology
Manufactured By:Panasonic
Part Number:AMG8834EK
The Grid-EYE Infrared (IR) Array sensor evaluation kit combines Panasonic’s industry leading Grid-EYE sensor, its “nanopower” PAN1740 Bluetooth Smart module and a microcontroller on one PCB. By combining its new IR sensor technology with Bluetooth technology it enables engineers to design and develop wireless sensor prototypes quickly.
The Grid-EYE sensor module includes an 8x8 IR pixel matrix. This matrix is capable of measuring temperatures ten times per second over a wide temperature range (-20C to 100C) Communicating with the evaluation kit is achieved wirelessly using the built in Bluetooth module or via a wired USB link. The kit can function as a standalone device or it can also be connected to an Arduino platform.
