Panasonic Grid-EYE® Infrared Array Sensors

Panasonic Grid-EYE^® Infrared Array Sensors are surface mountable and feature 64 thermopile elements in an 8x8 grid format that detects absolute temperatures by infrared radiation. Grid-EYE can provide thermal images by measuring actual temperature and temperature gradients. Panasonic Grid-EYE enables the detection of multiple persons and the identification of positions and directions of movement, almost independent of ambient light conditions, without disturbing privacy as with conventional cameras. The built-in silicone lens provides a viewing angle of 60°. Measurement values are viewable through an I²C interface in 1 or 10 frames per second. The interrupt signal output quickly responds to time-critical events for a high degree of flexibility.
