M5Stack M5Stick T-Lite Thermal Camera Dev.Kit – Compact Thermal Camera Development Board for IoT
The M5Stick T-Lite Thermal Camera Dev.Kit is a complete development kit from M5Stack based on the ESP32-based M5Stick host module and the MLX90640 thermal sensor. It provides an easy entry point for developing thermal camera applications for IoT, home automation, and portable devices.
Integrated MLX90640 sensor captures 32x24 thermal pixels for precise temperature measurement
Compact M5Stick form factor – ideal for space-saving and portable projects
Programmable via Arduino, MicroPython, or UIFlow – flexible for different developer skills
I2C communication enables easy integration with other microcontrollers
What sets the M5Stick T-Lite Thermal Camera Dev.Kit apart
Unlike many thermal cameras, this Dev.Kit is designed as an open development platform. The ESP32 provides built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, allowing thermal data to be transmitted wirelessly. The combination of the M5Stick ecosystem and the MLX90640 sensor makes it one of the most compact solutions for thermal IoT prototypes.
Ideal for...
The kit targets developers, makers, and engineers who want to integrate thermal imaging into their projects – whether for building energy analysis, presence detection, machine learning, or temperature logging in industrial settings.
How to use the M5Stick T-Lite Thermal Camera Dev.Kit
Connect the board to your computer via USB and install the Arduino IDE or UIFlow. The sensor is automatically detected. Use the provided sample scripts to capture first thermal images. For advanced applications, the board can be expanded via GPIO pins.
M5Stack is a manufacturer of modular development boards and IoT components, particularly known for the M5Stick and M5Core series.
