| Someone needs to build a phone that is leaning towards a tricorder; I'd buy that for myself and my kids. My Pixel 10 has a temp sensor on it, which is cool, but I've had minimal use so far. I've always wanted to build a tricorder with my son, was just thinking about it last week when he was putting together a digital compass (with RasPi Nano, magnetic sensor, GPS, and LED light ring + OLED). |

| Caterpillar has a smartphone with a thermal camera. The price isn't far off the the price of the most expensive smartphones https://cat.smartwalkie.com/store/products/cats62pro |

Great for narrowing down overheating hardware, and you can keep one in a pocket. | |
