The X200xp was designed to sense differing amounts of long wavelength infrared coming from the various areas of a scene and to convert them to corresponding intensities of visible light on a display. This allows true see–in–the–dark capability, as well as the ability to discern additional information—differences in temperature—by observing the thermal properties of objects in any light condition.
