Contactless IR Temperature Sensor: MLX90614

Point this Contactless Infrared Temperature Sensor at something to determine its temperature. A great way to measure the temperature of an object from a distance, this sensor catches infrared beams emanating from objects at a distance to measure temperature. Uses the I2C protocol for easy interfacing with microcontrollers such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
