Title: Anyone come across this MobIR phone dongle?
Post by: alexwhittemore on June 03, 2020, 10:15:42 pm
I was just looking for a thermal app in the iOS App Store and ended up stumbling across this new MobIR device on Amazon: https://smile.amazon.com/Anti-peep-Temperature-Detection-Camcorder-Smartphone/dp/B083SPBLLW?sa-no-redirect=1&th=1

It looks like the amazon listing is shipped from China, and it looks like the app may itself only exist in chinese at the moment. And the resolution seems pretty crappy at only 120x90. BUT all that aside, it claims to be 25Hz, and I don't think I've ever come across anyone selling a 25Hz imager for USD $300.

Yeah - this is the model that the app has in cartoon form in its setup instructions screenshot on the app store. Looks pretty serious, but I have no idea how to find pricing or (detailed) specs.

EDIT: And the T-series looks like exactly what I want to buy right now for quick use, though I assume it'd be in the $400 or 500 range based on the $300 phone dongle with the same core, so probably too expensive for that slot.
