Thermal cameras are invaluable tools for spotting heat leaks and winter proofing your home [4]. The Mu Thermal Imager [5] is a compact, affordable accessory that turns your smartphone, tablet, laptop or computer into a thermal camera! The device is the first of its kind to offer the resolution (19,200 pixels) and software capabilities to make it useful for DIY home improvements and professional construction. Up until now, thermal cameras of this quality have cost anywhere from $2,000 to $22,000, or up to $150 a day to rent – the Mu Thermal Imager will have a MSRP of less than $325 and it’s currently available on IndieGoGo [5] for only $125 for early adopters.
