lol, what the heck. Interpolation is a way to increase apparent resolution. So what the heck is the native detector? It is almost like they took some sort of regular IR thermometer detector then interpolated that to get to 12x16.
Think I am going to take 4 Fluke 62 MAX IR thermometers and cable tie them all together and see what kind of readings I can get. Technically they would have a slightly higher resolution than this camera…without the screen.
