Matrix Cube
The high.RES is a prototyping sensor meant to help users fully categorize their radiant environment. A suite of 3 integrated sensors allows for a huge variety of measurements. Like the mini.RES, it employs 6 medical-grade Melexis single-point thermopiles for overall Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT) measurements. In addition, it utilizes 6 Heimann array-based IR sensors to stitch together a 360° thermal panorama of over 6000 pixels that accurately covers 100% of the spherical field of view. To complete the set, 6 of our custom shortwave sensors enables the sensor to measure shortwave planar irradiance in 6 directions.
Capabilities:
- Mean radiant temperature
- Planar radiant asymmetry
- Nonplanar radiant asymmetry
- Longwave radiation
- Shortwave radiation
- Panoramic thermal imaging
All data are timestamped and can be read from the sensor in several ways. The primary method is through a file written to a microSD card port. For wired applications, the device will broadcast over a serial port at up to 115200 baud. Lastly, the touch screen can be used to select a "point of interest" and will display live the surface temperature at that location.
