Picture the scene. It’s dark, dog search teams are out looking for a lost person or suspect. One of the dogs picks up a scent and is released…but disappears from sight. Fortunately, the canine support is wearing a jacket protected by thermal film, meaning the drone overhead can track every movement.
Bluelite is now supplying the thermal film that makes dogs and their handlers stand out in night-time searches. The film is also available for vehicle roof markings.
The passive material needs no power source to work. The film reflects the energy in its environment to a thermal camera, which recognises a temperature difference and makes the wearer “pop-out”.
The material is specified for use in defence environments, so comes with the reassurance of being proven in harsh operating conditions. With this film, available from Bluelite, there’s no need to lose track of a search team’s ‘best friend’ on the ground.
