The imager operates like a camera. It gathers infrared radiation just as a camera gathers visible light. The imager converts the infrared radiation into a visible image displayed on a screen. Warm areas appear white, cool areas are displayed as black, and in-between areas look gray on the screen. The Agema 210 AL imager shows heat patterns in a relative sense. It does not measure temperature in degrees like a thermometer does. ilroy . Jan ints The guardsman's thermal scan showed high heat levels coming from the garage roof and ss Bosse - also from a side wall. It also showed that Kyllo's house, part of a triplex, was giving off Docs more heat than the other houses in that triplex. Based on prior observations, the er wrappin guardsman felt that the heat patterns were similar to those of other marijuana growing operations. This information was combined with other information. For example, police d or create subpoenaed Kyllo's utility records, and these revealed high electrical use at Kyllo's home. U.S. Bureau of Land Management agents then obtained a search warrant.

Is the use of a thermal imaging device to detect heat that is either within a home or radiating from it a "search" under the Fourth Amendment? 13.
