USB Camera will turn any smartphone into thermal imager: how can the Armed Forces help

Such a device could be used by the Armed Forces employees to conduct intelligence and observation in the dark, without risking being close to the enemy's position, and at the same time, using a regular smartphone instead of expensive special equipment. By adjusting the focus of the lens, you can see both close and distant objects on the screen, which also favorably distinguishes this device from other similar ones.

During the tests, the camera even jumped a signature of the aircraft, which flew high in the sky, which would help the soldiers of the Armed Forces to identify the threats in the sky, such as drones, which are used for exploration and strikes for purposes. The camera, who tested the camera, came to the conclusion that she could also be useful for commercial purposes. Xinfrared One XH09 has a frequency of 50 Hz, which makes real time viewing very comfortable.

Other such cameras have a lower frequency, which leads to delays, which, in turn, complicates attempts to distinguish thermal traces, especially when the scene has a mixture of temperature ranges. The author of the material praised the thermal imaging chamber and for its work indoors. By changing focus, they were able to determine the temperature indicators of objects that are very close to the lens.

When the journalist made a thermal imaging selfie, he was able to see such small details as eyelashes, eyebrow hairs and more. In the material, the author noted that the camera can be brought to the object at least 12 cm and, unlike the Pixel 8 Pro temperature sensor, to see thermal signatures, while the sensor will not provide a quality image from such distance, but only measures the temperature.
