Ta for the reply :)
I'd not really thought too much about other uses, but electronics
stuff would be cool.
It'd be a good thing to have as a shared tool, as you'd only use it
every now and then, in a, hunting the cold air leaks and fixing them,
sort of way. It feels like more accurately targeting insulation
changes would make energy saving investments more cost effective.
I had wondered if the MLX90640 Thermal Camera with a Pi would be good
for tracking wildlife, motion capture, but since it's only 32x24
pixels the beasties would have to be quite big or quite close. Don't
think it'd work for bats, for example.
