We went to one of the world’s biggest oil fields with an infrared camera to find out what’s leaking into the sky.

That camera module, paired with an IR pass filter, makes for infrared photography like the old Yashica used to do with special film.

Infrared cameras detect people and other objects by the heat they emit. Now, researchers have discovered the uncanny ability of a material to hide a target by masking its telltale heat properties.

As you might expect, he didn’t actually put an entire floppy inside the camera. He used the internal disk portion as an infrared filter to obtain some striking photos.

Army researchers enhanced the military's capabilities to detect and identify hidden targets with a new advancement in thermal imaging technology.

Of course, this is a false-color image. Since our eyes can't detect infrared light, the camera basically translates, using visible colors to represent different wavelengths in the infrared range.
