Thermal imaging is different from infrared night vision. Thermal imagers capture 8-14 micron infrared signals, while night vision devices still capture visible light signals (it's just that its photosensitive element is more sensitive than ordinary cameras. If it is a completely dark environment, night vision devices cannot be used).

Infrared night vision devices are military night vision devices that use photoelectric conversion technology. Different functions In civilian use, they are generally called thermal imagers, which are mainly used in research and development or industrial testing and equipment maintenance. They are also widely used in fire prevention, night vision and security.

The biggest difference between night vision devices and thermal imagers is that they work in different ways. The differences between night vision devices and thermal imagers are as follows: Effect: General night vision devices directly observe the target through the lens, so the field of view seen is circular and the picture is green, just like what is seen through the telescope lens.

Different effects

If you have used ordinary night vision devices, you will find that the observation feeling of night vision devices and general infrared thermal imagers is completely different.
