Hi everyone,
I am new to OpenMV and Flir Lepton and before I buy I have a basic question.
Is there a basic example in the OpenMV IDE included where I can get an Image with a temperature scale or even better would be an image with the temperature information of each pixel?
Best regards,
Tom

There’s a huge forum thread if you use google to search for it that has all these answers. A user did a deep dive and checked the accuracy of the image when it’s scaled to 8 bits. You don’t need the full 14-bit temp value. Just see the example scripts and use those to get the temperature per pixel.
E.g. there’s no way to get the full 14-bit image currently. But, we output a scaled 8–bit image given and min and max temp range that’s quite accurate.
