Various techniques are disclosed for providing a device attachment configured to releasably attach to and provide infrared imaging functionality to mobile phones or other portable electronic devices. The device attachment may include an infrared imagining module and a non-thermal imaging module that cooperate with one or more of a non-thermal imaging module in an attached device and a light source in the attached device for capturing and processing images.

A sensing device comprising an electromagnetic sensor having a surface with a plurality of different electromagnetic radiation interception areas arranged one above the other, one or more controllable flaps adapted to cover one or more of the different electromagnetic radiation interception areas preventing the electromagnetic sensor from intercepting electromagnetic radiation on the covered electromagnetic radiation interception areas, at least one control mechanism adapted to maneuver the controllable flaps so as to change the covered electromagnetic radiation interception areas and a plurality of lenses located in front of the electromagnetic sensor, each having a different focal length. One of the lenses has a certain focal length and focuses electromagnetic radiation to at least one of the different electromagnetic radiation interception areas, and another of the lenses has a different focal length and focuses electromagnetic radiation to another electromagnetic radiation interception area.

Disclosed is a non-contact temperature sensing apparatus. The non-contact temperature sensing apparatus includes a substrate connected to one end portion of a lead frame; the lead frame extended to an upper portion of the substrate; an element for sensing temperature attached to the other end portion of the lead frame; and an element for compensating temperature attached to a lower surface of the substrate, wherein the element for sensing temperature is separated from the substrate, thereby increasing a thermal responsibility.
