Both Max and Damien were very gracious when I sent them various questions when I was getting going. Max Ritter's DIY Thermocam and Damien Walsh's Leptonic are really well done and instructive. Pure Engineering and Group Gets are to be commended for making these devices available to makers. I read about a lot of other great projects online to get going. This is the story of my thermal imaging camera journey. However it soon became obvious that I'd need a simpler platform to learn how to use the Lepton module when I started reading the documentation and playing with the various demo codebases. My original long-term goal was to create a capable thermal imaging camera using the Beaglebone Black and a 7" LCD cape as the platform matching some of the features of high end commercial products.
