No confusion at all. All working like 2nd law saysYep, the camera FPA was losing energy toward the missing IR since it wasn’t cooledWaiting on his response, the cameras uncooled therefore, hmmm can’t read cold ir.So much for the claim that you need to cool the instrument to see photons from cooler matter.
the cameras uncooled therefore, hmmm can’t read cold ir.
You saw the cold ice cream. Why couldn't it read the ice cream?

Let's follow your "logic".
The sensor knows to receive from, and not emit toward, the warmer skin of the girl.
Because of your confusion about the 2nd Law.
She opens her mouth to expose the ice cream, and without receiving a photon, the sensor knows it can suddenly emit.
That sensor has ESP or something.
No luck finding the dimmer switch sub clause of the SB?
You are wasting your time...His special brand of stupid simply can't be fixed.
Second Law of Thermodynamics: It is not possible for heat to flow from a colder body to a warmer body without any work having been done to accomplish this flow. Energy will not flow spontaneously from a low temperature object to a higher temperature object
He believes that the second law of thermodynamics doesn't apply to radiation...he thinks that radiation is something other than energy...even though, by definition, radiation is energy moving through some medium in the form of a waver particles if you believe in theoretical particles...
Further, he believes that the sensor in the camera must "know" something in order to obey the laws of thermodynamics...He believes that photons must know something in order to obey the laws of thermodynamics. He can never accept that the sensor in that camera nothing more than an array of sensors that does nothing more than measure whether they are heating up...or cooling down and then turn that temperature increase or decrease into an electrical signal which is then processed through a mathematical formula which assigns a color to a pixel on a screen. If the sensor in the array is warming, it assigns a warm color to a pixel on a screen based on how much and how fast it is warming...if it is cooling, then it assigns a cool color to a pixel on a screen based on how much and how fast it is cooling.
I doubt that anything, including an explanation by a manufacturer or a designer would convince him of how the device works...he is convinced that cold objects are beaming energy to warm objects...it is his belief and belief isn't subject to being swayed by trivial things like fact.
