A node.js module for working with the infrared temperature sensor via i2c. Ported from

About the sensor

TThe MLX90614 is an infrared thermometer for non-contact temperature measurements. Both the IR sensitive thermopile detector chip and the signal conditioning ASIC are integrated in the same TO-39 can. Integrated into the MLX90614 are a low noise amplifier, 17-bit ADC and powerful DSP unit thus achieving high accuracy and resolution of the thermometer.
Datasheet available via from melexis.

Note: If you are installing the node module locally, the repo needs to be inside due to how node.js looks for packages.

#### Raspberry PI
Enable i2c on your Pi if you haven't done already. To avoid having to run the i2c tools as root add the ‘pi’ user to the i2c group:
`
sudo adduser pi i2c
`

Usage

`
var MLX90614 = require('mlx90614-driver');

var sensor = new MLX90614();

function getTemp() {
var temp = sensor.readObject();
console.log(temp);
}


window.setInterval(getTemp, 1000);
