Use a diagnostic tool: Modern cars equipped with OBD-II (On-Board Diagnostics) ports can be scanned using a diagnostic tool to read the temperature sensor data and even identify its exact location.

This means the HT-A1 can be used normally, but by plugging in a custom-made cable while the unit is off, the thermal sensor can be accessed by the mobile phone app instead. Best of both worlds.

Thermal cameras are too expensive to be used in cars. Microbolometer technology has already yielded megapixel sensors for defense use, but these would be too expensive for automotive applications.
