Teledyne Teledyne FLIR Lepton 3.5 (500-0771-01) Thermal Camera Module, 160×120 LWIR, Radiometric, SPI

Description

The Teledyne Teledyne FLIR Lepton 3.5 (500-0771-01) is an industrial-grade thermal camera module engineered for embedded vision and IoT sensing. Its core is a 160×120 pixel uncooled microbolometer operating in the Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) spectrum, capable of capturing both thermal imagery and calibrated radiometric data for precise temperature measurement. The module communicates via a straightforward SPI interface, making it compatible with a wide range of host processors from ARM Cortex-M series microcontrollers to Raspberry Pi and other popular SBCs.

Designed for low-power operation and a compact form factor, the Lepton 3.5 is ideal for integration into space-constrained and battery-powered applications. Its 56° horizontal field of view provides sufficient coverage for tasks like thermal monitoring, preventive maintenance, human presence detection, and environmental sensing. The module outputs both a thermal image stream and temperature data, enabling developers to build advanced analytics for smart home automation, industrial IoT, security systems, and portable diagnostic tools.
