can thermal imaging cameras see through walls

Thermal cameras cannot see through walls. Thermal cameras sense infrared heat radiation emitted by objects to achieve their observation function, but walls themselves do not generate heat radiation, so thermal cameras cannot see through walls. Thermal cameras work by detecting infrared heat radiation emitted by objects to mark temperature differences, thereby forming a thermal image. Since walls do not emit heat radiation, thermal cameras cannot directly see through walls to observe indoor conditions.

However, if there are people in the room causing the temperature of the wall to change, thermal cameras can capture these temperature changes and indirectly "see through" the wall. This is because the human body and other heat sources emit heat radiation, which thermal cameras can sense and form an image. 1 In addition, if there are certain objects in the wall that cause enough temperature differences, thermal cameras may also sense these temperature differences on the surface of the wall.

In short, although thermal cameras cannot see through walls directly, they can indirectly observe the situation on the other side of the wall by sensing temperature changes under certain conditions.
