As per title folks. its a MLX90640 Thermal Camera Breakout attached to a pi4. I've bought the breakout board hat for it as well, as my soldering skills leave something to be desired.

I've tried to setup said camera but to no avail. The pi detects the camera but the python script wont run. I'm no expert on raspberry pi and what hardware you can run, I follow instructions and get frustrated when things don't work as they should and there's no help

Any ideas? If anyone has the same setup and has got it to work, I would like to be able to get it to work as I want to see where there are any heat leaks from a couple of properties.

Thanks.
 
Which os version is it, and are all the hardware bits compatible. They changed the camera setup/system in bullseye. You could try a previous os revision

Thanks for the replies, I gave up on this project 6 months ago & I did not have the time to follow it up. I may well end up putting the camera module on the MM.
