A new operating principle for apparatus for the qualitative two-dimensional remote analysis of thermal phenomena is considered. The apparatus enables the thermal distribution of objects to be visualized in the medium infrared frequency spectrum and possesses spatial resolving power when detecting a point object approximately two orders of magnitude higher compared with the classical case.
