Thermal infrared cameras are used for many things. Examples of this are with firefighters. Firefighters use these cameras to see through smoke and possibly through walls. Also, police officers may use these cameras to seek out running criminals in the dark. People interested in the supernatural may additionally use thermal infrared cameras as it can help to see paranormal apparitions.
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.
