If only some means existed to adapt a device with one type of physical connector to a host with a different one, presupposing that the host was engineered to provide backwards-compatibility with devices of the type in question from an electrical and signalling perspective...

Really the bigger issue was lining up the rear camera on the phone with the thermal image from the other camera. From only 2 feet away the picture was off over an inch. Very annoying.
NOW they could have gotten better over time and this brand could be better than the Flir i had at the time. This was only two years ago.
I also could be spoiled by the very expensive hand held Flir we have. Come to think of it, i think the phone one came free with the handheld one.

Why is it necessary that the IR camera be aligned with the phone's visible-light camera?
I was thinking of just putting the IR camera on the end of a cable, rather than attaching it directly to the phone with a C-Micro adapter. Having done a little research, this is exactly what the manufacturer recommends when using a Galaxy S8: https://www.thermal.com/supported.html

Use a strip of velcro to attach the IR camera to the back of the phone case, a 6" USB C male to Micro B female cable to joint them, and you have a more stable and robust system than just plugging the camera directly into a phone with a USB Micro jack.
