There are a number of different FLIR camera that have thermal imaging. In fact, all of FLIR's cameras have thermal imaging, and are used by military, police, and civilians.
Thermal imaging is not comparable to a x-ray. However thermal imaging has been compared to x-ray vision. Nevertheless, both x-rays and thermal imaging are both important. They both have different uses.
Thermal Imaging cameras work on a 14,000nm wavelength, which is perfect for working in poorly lit (dark) places due to their ability to capture heat emitted by objects (hence not requiring light for the camera to detect objects). Basic thermal imaging cameras cost $1,000-$2,000. Specialized thermal imaging cameras (such as those used by fire departments) cost around $9,000 each.

Yes, a civilian can purchase a thermal imaging camera. They are available at online retailers, including at Sears.com. Yes a civillian can purchase a thermal imaging camera. Beleive it or not you can find them on Ebay.
The Photo Booth thermal view does work on iPad 2. But keep in mind it isn't actual thermal imaging. If there is light, it will show up as a brighter color on the screen.
remember it for ever as 40% of it is by imaging

FLIR systems sells some really well made thermal imaging cameras. Their prices aren't considered "cheap" but neither are their products. They last and work exceptionally well.
No, thermal imaging is a post war invention.
Depending on how much you're willing to spend on the cameras, they can be pretty beneficial. If you do install thermal imaging cameras, they will be able to pick up heat from bodies. It doesn't matter how dark it is also. Since the cameras work off of heat, there is not getting by these!
