Can night vision binoculars see through tinted windows?



I am specifically asking about the type issued to the military and law enforcement. The type of tinted windows I have are designed to reflect the heat from outdoors so that it doesn't get so hot inside. Since this type of binocular picks up and "sees" the heat coming from living beings and the windows reflect it back outside, would night vision goggles be able to see inside my home?


Answers:


1Possibly (you seem to be referring ti both night vision and infra-red or heat vision), however infra-red can see through wall, so if your windows are opaque they can still see you through the walls, not to mention DARPA is working on a device that detects heartbeats. Which means they probably already have it and could use two of them to triangulate a sniper shot to hit a heart through a wall.
Well, sleep tight.
