/Thermique_rev2

Second revision of the Thermique project I did back in 3rd year. Uses a FLIR Lepton thermal camera with a Pi, with barebones SPI and a C++ QT frontend.

Primary LanguageCSS

This codebase is valid for Rev2 only

raspberrypi_video [Edited]

  1. This is for raspberrypi_video only. raspberrypi_qt was not used in final production.
  2. Enable I2C and SPI
  3. Overclock the pi to a minimum of 1100MHz for Pi3. If using Pi4, don't do this.
  4. Write the following into /boot/config.txt: [for Pi3 only, skip if using Pi4]
over_voltage=4  
sdram_freq=400  
core_freq=400  
gpu_freq=400
  1. In /boot/config.txt, make sure hdmi hotplug is set to 1.
  2. Keep the module connected to pi using shortest possible wires.
  3. DO NOT CONNECT BACKSIDE PINS TO Vcc and GND
  4. Use the following to install necessary Qt libraries for compilation:
sudo apt-get install qt4-dev-tools
  1. Finally, compile using:
qmake && make
  1. To clean, use the following:
make sdkclean && make distclean
  1. Since Lepton Module ver3.5 is being used, run the executable with:
./raspberrypi_video -tl 3
  1. Press 'r' on keyboard for FFC reset.
