DESCRIPTION

Measuring body temperature with non-contact / contactless like a thermo gun. I created this project because Thermo Gun now is very expensive, so I must get alternative to make DIY. And the purpose is make with low budget version.

Wiring Connection (Hardware)

MLX 90614 have I2C communication, so in Arduino Nano use pin A4 & A5

Wiring Connection Arduino and MLX90614
Wiring Connection Arduino and MLX90614

Prepare Programming (Software)

For library MLX90614 I use adafruit library, you can Open Arduino IDE and menu Tools -> Manage Libraries -> search MLX90614. and click Adafruit MLX90614 Library then click install in Library Manager

Library MLX90614
Library MLX90614

Test Example From Library

To make sure that mlx90614 sensor can work, open Arduino IDE, Click File -> Examples -> Adafruit MLX90614 Library -> mlxtest.

Upload then see serial Monitor, you can see Ambient temperature and object temperature.

After sample MLX90614 code work, prepare circuit between arduino nano and mlx90614 sensor like a picture. For OTG you can make DIY with Male Microusb and Male Miniusb.
