  • Can Thermal Imaging See Through Fog and Rain?

    Thermal imaging cameras see in total darkness, producing clear, crisp images without the need for any light. This makes IR cameras excellent instruments for numerous night vision applications. Although thermal imaging cameras can see in total darkness, through light fog, light rain, and snow, the distance they can see is affected by these atmospheric conditions.

  • Researchers Develop Search and Rescue Technology That Sees Through Forest with Thermal Imaging

    A team of researchers at Johannes Kepler University in Austria released a paper published in Nature Machine Intelligence that describes a technique called airborne optical sectioning (AOS), which allows an aerial imager to see through occlusions like a forest canopy. The team, headed by Professor Oliver Bimber, achieved an accurate classification rate of over 90% using a drone equipped with a FLIR Vue Pro thermal imaging camera and a machine learning algorithm trained to identify humans below.
