Thermal imaging camera
It turns out my local library has thermal imaging cameras that you can borrow for a week. This particular one requires a free download from the app store, and you pug it into the port of your iphone. They have android ones too.
So I got it last night and played around with it a bit. I'll post a few, but for now, he're me running cold water over my hand. Visible light, compared to IR.

how much fun is that? I need not to be distracted from the job search/other shit I need to attend to... but..... I borrowed a metal detector last year (because I didn't know where our two were -didn't help me find them though....) :D
Why did it give you the water temp and not your hand, because you aim it?
OMSI Museum in Portland has a thermal imaging camera you can walk up to, and look at the results in a giant screen. I like to see how much insulation my beard is providing.
You do aim it. It has two side by side cameras. A visible light camera and the IR camera. The idea is that in the app, you can swipe back and forth to see clearly what you are looking at. They don’t line up perfectly at all distances. Close up, like 2 feet away from the object, the misalignment is obvious. They seem to be calibrated to line up with each other at a distance from across the room. More of a sweeping wide angle view of the side of a house.
It’s mainly intended to see where your home might need weatherstripping or insulation.
I took a picture of my wife about five minutes after she had climbed into bed. You can see the blankets insulate well, but are starting to warm up.
Then my son jumped onto the bed next to her for a minute or so, he got up and left, and I took a picture of my wife alone. You can see his lingering heat signature.
Cold to the touch objects like a table saw surface don’t hold on to residual heat. But a warm object like a pine table top or vinyl floor do.
You could scan the club for the hottest babes. :haha:
Awesome, thanks for sharing
you gotta do a pic of a fart!

yessssss
A lot of people are saying that the fart idea may be one of the best, maybe even THE best idea in the history of people having ideas.
I can overnight beans......

So, timing a fart is difficult for me. So I tried holding my breath for as long as I could to really let the air in my lungs get up to body temperature. And then I took a picture of a slow exhale through pursed lips. The camera could not see it. I don’t think a fart would show on this camera.
Here is a dead Anker battery pack that I had just plugged in to charge.
thanks for this thread, glatt, I am entertained
even if you are copping out with the lack of fart attempts
Could it capture it if the fart was lit?

Pretty dang cool. Molten steel vibe from the kettle.

Not after. ;)
So I wondered what the shower would look like.

Yeah, I thought it looked like the hot spot had been stabbed. :haha:
good thread glatt, thanks!
Folks, check out your local libraries -you never know what fun things you will find. They were all about books when books were things people couldn't afford to buy. Now....
Ours has a 3D printer too.

Does it come with the printing medium or do you need to buy the carts/whatever?
I’m not sure how it works. You can’t check it out, but you can use it. Maybe you pay for what you use. I haven’t tried it yet.

Neat!
Are the aliens warmer or colder than the humans?

Sleeping bags lose heat out the bottom because you compress all that insulation and loose the insulating power of all that air in between the down feathers. If you have an insulated pad, the pad will help keep that heat from getting lost into the cold ground, and you will sleep warmer.

True, but hot guys like you don't need that pad. ;)
the Earth is a pretty big heat sink
The Earth also generates a lot of heat.
