Thermal uses heat to veiw, hence the name thermal. TIS (Thermal Imaging Sight) can be used during the day, in rain, fog, snow, sleet, smoke, haze, light skined objects, and dust. You can see heat left from a human being, like if someone where leaning against a wall, the thermal view would see the heat left by the body.

Thermal comes in many colors. White-hot, red, multi-color, and green-hot.
