    Seatbelt is dark, why the fuck is infrared picking it up as white?

    We have such advanced technology, why can’t the cameras at bare minimum detect a fucking seatbelt?

    Color isn’t outright necessary, but holy fuck it can’t even detect illumination levels?

      Because the dark color is reflected visible light, it probably reflects more infrared light so looks bright to an infrared camera. We technically shouldn’t even be able to see this image at all, it’s being rerendered in visible light but as infrared is one “color” it’s shown as monochrome

        No shit, that’s the entire point, IR cameras shouldn’t be used at all to ‘see’ seatbelts…
