The Grove Thermal Imaging Camera IR Array MLX90640 brings thermal vision to your projects, mapping temperature across a 32×24 pixel grid from -40 °C to 300 °C in real time. Its wide 110°×75° field of view and Grove I²C interface make it the go-to sensor for environmental monitoring, building diagnostics and heat-sensitive robotics.

Simply plug it into any Grove-compatible board, whether a Raspberry Pi for quick prototyping to visualise thermal changes, spot insulation leaks or augment your robot’s “sight”.

Technical Specifications

Sensor array: MLX90640, 32 × 24 pixels
Field of view: 110° × 75°
Temperature range: –40 °C to 300 °C (±1.5 °C accuracy)
Interface: I²C via Grove connector (3.3 V logic)
Memory requirement: MCU with ≥20 000 bytes RAM

How to Use/Installation

Connect the module to a Grove I²C port on your MCU or Grove Base Hat.
Ensure your chosen board has at least 20 000 bytes of free RAM (e.g. Arch Mix, Seeeduino Lotus Cortex-M0).
Download and install the Arduino or Python libraries from the official wiki.
Load the example sketch or script and begin reading temperature frames at up to 8 Hz.
Visualise or log the data in your preferred toolchain.

Compatibility

MCUs with ≥20 000 bytes RAM (e.g. Arch Mix)
Seeeduino boards based on SAMD21/SAMD51 (for example, Seeeduino Lotus Cortex-M0)
All Raspberry Pi models, including Pi Zero
Any Grove-enabled host via the Grove Base Hat
Other I²C-capable platforms supporting 3.3 V logic and standard Grove cabling
