Cameras that can see in the dark are nothing special. But how much detail can you really get from that fuzzy, green, Buffalo Bill-o-vision? The colour Night Vision Camera, though, can reproduce red, blue, and green even through the pitch black darkness, using the magic of infrared.
There are just 26 days left for people to vote on whether the Night Vision concept watch should be put into production. I vote YES, if only because it’s their easiest-reading yet. Don’t believe me? Check it out:
The AstroScope 9350 night-vision image intensifier mounts between camera and lens to make dark scenes (below 10-4 lux) easily photographable. The EOS-P and NIKS-P models are for Canon EOS and Nikon AF cameras, and are powered by the camera’s battery.
At $US40,000, this Helicopter FLIR Thermal Imaging System/Infrared Imager may seem a little bit expensive, but when the eBay sellers tells you that “these units are just off a fleet-wide upgrade by a major federal government agency”, the prospect of adding it to your home-made cardboard helicopter or drug-smuggling vehicle looks better and better by the second. Don’t think this is your usual night vision system, however. A FLIR is much more advanced than that.
