Free North Carolina: From the Drone Survival Guide#comment-form
Most drones are equipped with night vision, and/or infrared vision camera's, so-called
FLIR sensors. These can see human heat signatures from far away, day or night. However there are ways to hide from drones.
• Day camouflage: Hide in the shadows of buildings or trees. Use thick forests as natural camouflage or use camouflage nets.
• Night camouflage: hide inside buildings or under protection of trees or foliage. Do not use flashlights or vehicle spot lights, even at long distances. Drones can easily spot this during night missions.
• Heat camouflage: Emergency blankets (so-called space blankets) made of Mylar can block infrared rays. Wearing a space blanket as a poncho at night will hide your heat signature from infrared detection. Also in summer when the temperature is between 36°C and 40°C (97°F to 104°F), infrared camera's cannot distinguish between body and its surroundings.
• Wait for bad weather. Drones cannot operate in high winds, smoke, rainstorms or heavy weather conditions.
• No wireless communication. Using mobile phones or GPS based communication will possibly compromise your location.
• Spreading reflective pieces of glass or mirrored material on a car on a roof will confuse the drone's camera.
• Decoys. Use mannequins or human-sized dolls to mislead the drone's reconnaissance.
