====== Infrared thermometer ======

This is a thermopile sensor for contact-less measurement of temperature.

There is a sample code for usage with [[https://github.com/MLAB-project/MLAB-I2c-modules|pymlab]] Python library and [[en:usbi2c|USBI2C01A]] module:

  from pymlab import config
  
  #### Sensor Configuration ###########################################
  cfg = config.Config(
      i2c = {
          "port": 0, # I2C bus number
      },
  
      bus = [
          {
              "type": "i2chub",
              "address": 0x73,
              
              "children": [
                  {"name": "thermopile", "type": "thermopile01", "channel": 4, },
              ],
           },
      ],
  )
  
  cfg.initialize()
  sensor = cfg.get_device("thermopile")
