Thermal camera for Home Assistant

Please ⭐ this repo if you find it useful

Thermal

The thermal implementation allows you to integrate your thermal sensor to Home Assistant.

(Me saying hello)

There is currently support for the following device types within Home Assistant:

• Camera
• Sensor

• Requirements
• Installation
  • Manual Installation
  • Installation via HACS
• Configuration
  • Configuration Parameters
• Advanced Configuration
• Thermal Sensors

Requirements

For the integration to work with a thermal sensor, the thermal sensor device should respond to the following HTTP API requests:

API	Type	Response	Example
/raw	GET	JSON	{"sensor":AMG8833","rows":8,"cols":8,"data":"23.00,22.75,22.25,23.25,23.25,23.50,23.50,23.50,22.75,23.00,23.00,23.00,23.00,22.75,22.75,22.75,23.25,22.75,23.00,22.75,22.50,23.25,23.50,23.25,22.50,22.75,22.75,22.75,23.00,23.00,22.50,22.50,22.00,22.50,22.75,22.25,22.75,22.75,23.25,22.50,21.75,22.50,22.50,22.75,22.50,22.50,22.50,23.00,22.50,22.25,21.75,21.75,22.50,22.50,22.75,23.00,21.75,22.50,22.00,21.50,22.25,22.00,22.50,23.00"}

See the GridEye example in the examples folder.

Installation

MANUAL INSTALLATION

1. Download the thermal.zip file from the latest release.
2. Unpack the release and copy the custom_components/thermal directory into the custom_components directory of your Home Assistant installation.
3. Configure the thermal camera / sensor.
4. Restart Home Assistant.

INSTALLATION VIA HACS

1. Ensure that HACS is installed.
2. Search for and install the "thermal" integration.
3. Configure the thermal camera / sensor.
4. Restart Home Assistant.
