Infrared thermal imaging cameras are widely used in counter-surveillance, primarily for detecting hidden eavesdropping devices and electronic jamming equipment. Here are the specific applications and operating methods of infrared thermal imagers in counter-surveillance:
Non-contact detection: Infrared thermal imagers form images by detecting the heat radiation of objects, without the need for direct contact with the measured object.
Good concealment: The detection process does not emit obvious signals, making it difficult for eavesdropping devices to detect.
Real-time imaging: Capable of displaying thermal images of the detected area in real-time, quickly identifying abnormal heat sources.
Wide applicability: Suitable for various environments such as offices, meeting rooms, vehicles, etc.
Bugging devices: Hidden eavesdropping devices usually generate slight heat, which can be detected by infrared thermal imagers.
Cameras: Hidden cameras also generate heat when operating, especially wireless cameras.
Jammers: Electronic jamming devices generate heat when working, and their location can be identified using infrared thermal imagers.
Abnormal wiring: Eavesdropping devices often require power supply support; infrared thermal imaging cameras can detect abnormal heat from power lines and identify potential eavesdropping devices.
Scanning a corporate executive meeting room with an infrared thermal imager camera revealed a bugging device hidden near the ceiling light fixtures.
Inspecting government official vehicles revealed a wireless bugging device hidden under the seat using an infrared thermal imager camera.
As an efficient counter-surveillance tool, infrared thermal imaging cameras can quickly and covertly detect hidden eavesdropping devices and electronic jamming equipment. By using and operating them correctly, the efficiency and accuracy of counter-surveillance work can be greatly improved.
