You are asking about IR, if you are using thermal imaging you have the IR that you are talking about. All cameras will do a good job in finding a potentially ejected MVA victim. A lot of departments that use TIC's for structure fires are starting to use them in MVA's. Heard a story some time back about a department that had a motorcycle rider thrown through a wire fence, after searching for his severed leg one of the members thought of using their TIC and after only a few seconds they found what they were searching for. Not really sure of the source of the story, kind of a urban type story.

Go to the firehouse.com forum on Thermal Imaging Cameras. More there than you can possibly want to know.
