Library Description
The library performs IR and temperature measurement. The sensor measures the temperature of the detected object (body) and measures the ambient temperature. For more details, see the documentation.
Key functions :
void irthermo3_init() - Function for initialization chip float irthermo3_getAmbientTemperature() - Function for reading Ambient temperaturefloat irthermo3_getObjectTemperature() - Function for read Object temperatureExample description
The application is composed of three sections :
void applicationTask()
{
ambientTemp = irthermo3_getAmbientTemperature();
mikrobus_logWrite(" Ambient temperature : ",_LOG_TEXT);
FloatToStr(ambientTemp, demoText);
mikrobus_logWrite(demoText,_LOG_LINE);
objectTemp = irthermo3_getObjectTemperature();
mikrobus_logWrite(" Object temperature :",_LOG_TEXT);
FloatToStr(objectTemp, demoText);
mikrobus_logWrite(demoText, _LOG_LINE);
mikrobus_logWrite(" ",_LOG_LINE);
Delay_ms(1000);
}

Additional notes and information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
