I just saw another media talking head say that a "thermal drone" wouldn't have detected Routh's heat signature in "south Florida temperatures" so I'm uploading this clip for all media outlets to download and use the next time this topic comes up.
This was filmed with a PARD Ocelot 640 (review is coming...) which likely isn't anywhere near as clear (it's also much cheaper) as what the Secret Service would buy with their $3 billion dollar budget.
In the footage:
-I'm about ~78 feet from the optic
-in the shade
-on a sunny day (visible spectrum lighting conditions in the right side photo)
-it was 92 degrees and pretty humid at the time
You can CLEARLY see me glowing in the footage. A drone likely would have been somewhat more obscured but, at an angle, that would be minimized.
Additionally, they make very inexpensive handheld monoculars that agents could use to scan woodlines and other areas that are hard for the human eye to see.
