IR Sensors Seeing Through Glass Surfaces
Reviewed, NormalPublic
Actions

Description

Currently all IR sensors are capable of seeing through multiple glass surfaces. Glass is not transparent to IR in real life. An IR sensor should see glass as an opaque surface and only read the actual temperate of the glass not whats behind it.

I've been able to reproduce this for several vehicles including the Hunter and 4WD jeep and also some scopes as well.
