I don't know where I stumbled on this from but it looks interesting.

>This is my “OpenTemp” project! It is a highly compact, pocket-sized thermal imager/infrared thermometer with a vast measurement range of -40 to 300°C. It is capable of achieving precise infrared radiation measurements corresponding to ±1.5°C (or ±0.2°C up close) in addition to a wide FOV of 110° at 768 FIR pixels of resolution.

Here I go again asking schizo questions, but could this be used to detect "bug" devices in places like for example an electric socket? Of course without taking it apart?

That actually seems like it could be a practical application. It would probably work best on cameras due to the heat generated from operation though. It would in theory show odd heat distribution/dissipation on a outlet if it was not structured in a "standard" way.

Those devices are often wireless though so that's why you see those "bug finders" with the antenna on them to "sniff them out".

I've done a bit of research and this device in the video does not have a clear enough image to be useful for this application. It would be better to cash out 300$ - 500$ and get a more advanced device. I've been considering using this in combination with a bug detector.
