Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging is the translation
of heat energy into visual image. Since all objects are at different
temperatures, the camera creates a visual image of the sited object's thermal
energy and the surrounding environment based on the differences in the
temperatures.

inventory of search and rescue equipment. Efficient use of thermal imaging
