MLX90615 code

c_cpp

Copy paste into Arduino IDE software and upload onto arduino. Run serial monitor and watch the action happen live.

I found that I got better results using just the sensor by itself as shown in the second schematic.

Did you manage to have good results? Did you use the same code using just the sensor?
