Abstract
Commercial thermal-RGB camera is very expensive, and is a lack of suitable for periodic remote sensing. This study presents the design and implementation of a low-cost thermal-RGB camera for usage in agriculture crop monitoring applications. It consisted of an open-source singleboard computer with thermal and RGB camera modules. The camera could be configured as a webserver to allow real-time data transfer to a client computer. It also could save periodic thermal and RGB data to a local disk. We additionally adopted video synchronization (VSYNC) mode so that video frames could be read out from the Lepton module. Also, power-saving strategies were utilized when the module was idle. Experimental results showed our camera collected remotely sensed images correctly.
