Can thermography see through water?
No, thermal imaging cameras cannot see through water very well. Water absorbs infrared radiation (IR), which is the type of radiation that thermal imaging cameras use to see. This means that the further the thermal imaging camera is from the object it is trying to see, the more the IR radiation will be absorbed by the water and the less visible the object will be.
In addition, the temperature difference between the object and the water also affects how well a thermal imaging camera can see it. If the object is the same temperature as the water, it will be invisible to the thermal imaging camera.
However, thermal imaging cameras can still be used to see objects underwater in some cases. For example, if the object is close to the surface of the water, the thermal imaging camera may be able to see it.
Overall, thermal imaging cameras are not very effective for seeing through water. However, they can be used in some cases to see objects underwater, particularly if the object is close to the surface.
