384 × 288 smartphone thermal camera with manual focus and 50 Hz output
The Mini3 is the top of the HIKMICRO smartphone module range. It carries a 384 × 288 detector — more than double the pixel count of the Mini2 series — with NETD below 30 mK, a manual-focus 10 mm lens and a measuring range that reaches 650 °C. Frame rate is switchable between 25 and 50 Hz, so moving targets stay sharp. It is an Android-only module and needs a phone with at least 8 GB RAM to run at 50 Hz.
Key features
-
384 × 288 VOx detector — 110,592 measurement points — the highest resolution in the HIKMICRO smartphone module range
-
NETD < 30 mK — resolves fine thermal gradients that a 256 × 192 module will smear together
-
Manual focus 10 mm lens — 26° × 19° field of view, sharp from 0.3 m to long range
-
25 / 50 Hz switchable — 50 Hz keeps rotating machinery and moving targets sharp (requires 8 GB RAM or more on the phone)
-
−20 °C to 650 °C measurement range — accuracy ±2 °C / ±2 %, high enough for exhausts, furnaces and process equipment
-
Battery-free operation — powered by the phone, nothing to charge
-
45 g, IP40 aluminium housing — tested to a 1 m drop
-
Android only — USB-C connection; check the HIKMICRO compatibility list before ordering
