Videos tagged with Military Blanket

This video from Elliott Delp tests various methods to hide a heat signature from a thermal optic. The experiment uses a 3000 thermal optic and a subject named Sparky. It concludes that standard military blankets and insulated hunting jackets are ineffective. A survival blanket offers some concealment but can still be detected. A plexiglass riot shield proved to be the most effective at blocking the heat signature, making the subject virtually invisible to the thermal optic under certain conditions.
