Seek Compact XR X-Ray - a photo on Flickriver

            An X-Ray image of a Seek Compact XR thermal imaging camera. 

The device is tiny - roughly the size of two AAA batteries side by side. The bit that sticks out at the top is a micro USB plug.

The thermal Image quality is, in my opinion, 'fair'. Its 206 x 156 resolution is much lower resolution than the imagers I normally use (mainly 384 x 288 or 320 x 240). It also doesn't have anything like the same ability to resolve small temperature differences. Whether this is something to do with the small lens, or a fundamental limitation of the sensor, I don't know. I suspect the lens - which is that large white lump on the right.

In use, the Seek ticks every second or so as it self-calibrates by moving a mechanical shutter inside itself. I was surprised that I couldn't see any obvious evidence of a shutter or its mechanical drive in this X-Ray. Perhaps it'll show up from a different angle. Something for the TODO list.
