Wooo! It charged...





That cat didn't seem as impressed as I was...

[Eat Shit And Die]

thats cool man is it goggles or a camera.

[crash]

Errr..camera. I think the spy guy is more the type for night vision goggles..

[Eat Shit And Die]

That isn't night vision though it's heat detection.

[crash]

Yeah, infra red. Same thing the goggles are based on, as far as I know.

Night vision vs Infrared

In applications where there is no distinction between night and day and lives are at risk, like in the military, it is important to establish visibility without being visible yourself. For this night vision goggles were created. Night vision goggles work by collecting what little amount of light is available and amplifying it so that it can be discerned by the naked eye. Infrared is a new technology employed with night vision goggles. Rather than employing visible light and amplifying them, infrared goggles rely on infrared waves that are emitted by anything that emits heat. The difference in temperatures between objects provides the contrast to identify between different objects.

Because night vision goggles amplifies available light that bounces off of objects, no light means no amplified image. Since infrared goggles do not rely on ambient light, they do not suffer from the same problem. Objects emit their own infrared light with amounts varying according to how much heat that body has. Infrared goggles can be used with even in total darkness.

The biggest advantage between the usual night vision and infrared goggles is that the latter is much better at spotting at objects that are partially or totally hidden. A person hidden inside a cardboard box or behind some bushes can be hard to see with the naked eye. With infrared, their heat signature would go through the covering material and be clearly visible to the infrared goggles. How deep the material is depends on how sensitive the unit is.

Just as with any weapon, there is always a countermeasure. To counteract an image intensification night vision goggles, a bright source of light can overload the device; momentarily blinding the person who is wearing the goggles. The countermeasure for infrared, although not as dramatic, is still as effective. Increasing the heat in an area means that there is no temperature difference for the device to detect.

Summary:

1. Night vision detects visible light while infrared detects radiated heat
2. Night vision needs a little amount of light while infrared doesn’t
3. Infrared is better for camouflaged targets than night vision
4. Night vision can be counteracted by bright light while infracted can counteracted by cooling

Well done googleboy, still doesn't change the fact that the spy guy is more likely to be in HotD's bushes with a set of goggles...

[Eat Shit And Die]

it has nothing to do with being google boy, I thought you may have been interested to learn the differences like I was. that is all you miserable Australian twat.

I thought you may have been interested to learn

Who said I wasn't?

Loktar is Clang, CN. I doubt User wants her son to turn into a ClangMcFly, she better start making him put his own damn waffles in the toaster before it's too late.

I didn't turn out so bad despite my overly clingy mom and being somewhat of a spoiled brat. I can cook, do my own laundry, mow the lawn, rake leaves, great babysitter/fun uncle, slowly losing some weight, etc.

So what if I'm a failure at managing my finances and keeping a job? I'm working on that and I'm confident that someday soon that I will fix that too.

[Clang McFly]

yes, be a real good parent user and tell your son to man up before he turns into loktar <.<

Yeah, because it could've been worse. I could've turned it into a semi-literate drug addict who appears to have no close family ties.

Didn't you say that you and your brother got kicked out of your last apartment because you allowed it to get so filthy that it became a health hazard?

Yes, but mainly because I got tired of being his maid and being the only one cleaning. Its frustrating to clean something and have rocktar destroy my hard work seconds/minutes later. Yeah I know, its mom karma. Now I know how mom felt picking up after us kids when we we're younger.

Now that post good sir was what we in the business call a slamdunk!

omg sir you wound me

I think esaddo is definitely the black sheep of the family they probably turned their back on him when he was a juvenile delinquent truant with klepto tendencies.

Good bye everyone. I'm really dying this time from the gall bladder. FUCK. It hurts! Thing one is still recovering and I don't have time for this shit. Someone post something to distract me please.
