A simple microcontroller like an Arduino Nano would work great and cost less. Remember, a Raspberry Pi is an entire, albeit simple, computer. Arduino is a much simpler (and cheaper) microcontroller. (There's some overlap in capabilities, so take this as a reasonable generalization.)\r\n\r\nHere's a sample project for non-contact temperature sensing:\r\n\r\nhttps://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/engineeringuofs/interfacing-ir-temperature-sensor-with-arduino-uno-279b70\r\n\r\nAlso, this book is an excellent resource for Arduino. It was just updated.\r\n https://www.amazon.com/dp/1680456938?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share","subreddit_name":"recruitinghell","author":"GGinNC"}]}
