I have just started learning the arduino and ultimately would like to be able to interface with the following temperature sensor:
Compact Series - optris CS LT
http://www.optris.com/optris-cs-lt.html

I have the sensor with the usb connection (spliced wires accessible) and am looking for a good tutorial on how I might start to learn how to interface via arduino.  The end goal is to read and visualize the temperature into processing.

Thanks for any help!
