Use Smartphone As Non Contact Thermometer / Portable Thermometer
Measuring body temperature with non-contact / contactless like a thermo gun. I created this project because Thermo Gun now is very expensive, so i must get alternative to make DIY. And the purpose is make with low budget version.
Supplies
- MLX90614
- Arduino Nano
- OTG Micro to mini usb
Wiring Connection
MLX 90614 have i2c communication, so in Arduino Nano use pin A4 & A5
Prepare Library MLX90614
for library MLX90614 i use adafruit library, you can Open Arduino IDE and menu Tools -> Manage Libraries -> search MLX90614. and click Adafruit MLX90614 Library then click install in Library Manager
Program Arduino MLX90614
Open Arduino IDE, Click File -> Examples -> Adafruit MLX90614 Library -> mlxtest.
Upload then see serial Monitor, you can see Ambient temperature and object temperature
Prepare Circuit, OTG, and 3D Print Cover
After sample MLX90614 code work, prepare circuit between arduino nano and mlx90614 sensor like a picture. For OTG you can make DIY with Male Microusb and Male Miniusb
Cover Portable Thermometer can download file 3D in https://grabcad.com/library/portable-thermometer-box-1 and print with your 3Dprint Machine
Upload New Code Arduino
Downloads
Install App Portable Thermometer From Playstore
You can search in playstore "portable Thermometer" or you can click this link Portable Thermometer or you can scan this qr-code
Running Portable Thermometer
How to running Portable thermometer
- Connect device in your smartphone with OTG.
- active OTG Connection in your smartphone
