No, night vision is the ability to see in low light condition and infrared vision is the capability of biological or artificial systems to detect infrared radiation. The terms thermal vision and thermal imaging, are also commonly used in this context since infrared emissions from a body are directly related to their temperature: hotter objects emit more energy in the infrared spectrum than colder ones.
Infrared waves are used for night vision apparatus to detect heat emitted by objects or living beings in the dark. Night vision technology converts infrared radiation into visible images, allowing users to see in low-light or completely dark conditions.
Yes, cats have exceptional night vision compared to humans. They have specialized adaptations in their eyes, like a higher concentration of rod cells that help them see in low light conditions. This allows them to be more active during the night.
No... they don't. You know nothing about ghosts! No I am just teasing.
In the general sense no. In the day time humans have the ability to see better. If you are talking strictly about night vision, than yes. Cats are nocturnal animals, hence their night vision in superb
No - no mammal can, unless it's a human with night vision googles. However, in common with many nocturnal predators, wolves are equipped with an organ known as the tapetum lucidum inside their eyes. This serves to concentrate and reflect what light is available to the retina, giving them night vision far better than that enjoyed by humans who do not have the tapetum lucidum and allowing them to effectively hunt in conditions that appear almost total darkness to human eyes - this is also why cats can hunt at night. Many snakes can hunt in total darkness, as they are equipped with heat sensing organs. Even if the snake is entirely unable to see, these will allow it to detect, track and accurately strike at prey - even blind snakes can feed themselves perfectly satisfactorily in this way. Bees, on the other hand, can see ultraviolet which is at the opposite end of the spectrum to infrared and is also invisible to humans - many types of flower have ultraviolet patterns which act like the lights at an airport to guide the landing bee towards the pollen and nectar within.

No, they are not the same. Infrared light is a type of light that is invisible to the human eye but can be detected by certain devices, such as cameras and sensors. Night vision, on the other hand, refers to technologies that amplify existing light (like moonlight or ambient light) to help us see better in low-light conditions.
Night sights, such as night vision goggles, typically use the infrared band of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared light is emitted by warm objects and can be detected by night vision devices to create nighttime images.

Night vision optics are pervasive all over the world. The infrared glasses are available in stores all over the nation.
The color light that is optimal for enhancing the performance of a night vision camera is infrared light.
Yes. In fact, nearly all infrared webcams and some even come with night vision.
Infrared light
It is used in medical healing. It is used in night vision apparatus.
