At the Mobile World Congress [mobileworldcongress.com] this week, Flir Systems [flir.co.uk] demonstrated the world's first thermal imaging smartphone [optics.org]. The Android-based Cat S60 Smartphone [catphones.com] includes the Lepton longwave infrared (LWIR) imager (80 x 60 pixels). [flir.com]

“With the ability to visualize heat that is invisible to the naked eye, the Cat S60 allows users to measure surface temperature from a distance, detect heat loss around doors and windows, spot moisture and missing insulation, making it the ideal Smartphone for building professionals, electricians, and first responders.”
