Night Vision Equipment

I have a question about Night Vision Equipment. I know Night vision works by sending out an invisible beam and enhancing that beam. What happens if more then one person is using NV equipment at the same time and in the same area?

I am asking because of a ghost hunting show that was on. In the show several people were using NV equipment and they recorded shadows that looked like people. The shadows appeared in front of near by trees and basically in front of the cameras. Specifically I saw 3 people with goggles, 2 cameras and one thermal camera that also had night vision.

To me this shows that the people using NV behind the camera man were casting beams from several angles that caused shadows from the people around. The show claims that these are shadows of ghost children.

I am posting here because my main question is about night vision equipment; and I want answers about the equipment not about the existence of ghosts.

I was active Army for 6 years and have a good bit of experience with a few NVG models. As to what they were using i cant answer you, but most NVG systems take in infrared light and magnify it so you can see. the device usually has the ability to project a narrow “spot” of IR light if its a moonless night and so on.
Older model NVG devices can produce some interesting things. I was using an old starlight model because my 14’s got broken getting out of a CH-47. Thank god I only had to use them for a few days. The starlight has no grain (fuzz like an old TV) adjustment and looking through them for long periods of time in certain terrain features can produce some “ghosting” effect which is a trick of the ambient light and shadow through the magnification and filtering portion of the device.
All that being said most newer gen 4 or 5 devices have overcome these faults. ps-unless its pitch black (no ambient light) using you IR illuminator A.) makes no sense B.) makes you stand out to anyone else with NVG’s and can interfere with the filters on your buddy’s system, i.e.- overload if you look him in the face while his are turned on.

Wildlife isn’t the only thing I see when hiking through the city parks at night with a thermal imager, Night Vision Equipment, etc. I often get footage of vandalism, people having sex, doing drug deals, police beating up and steeling dope from the drug dealers and taking advantage of the prostitutes etc., etc., etc. Although most of that content isn’t related to or appropriate for this channel I am often asked about it so I found a clip I can post here. This is the all too common activity of stealing firewood from a city park for a bush party. These guys made several trips to the pile before I started recording. I hope they met some drunk bimbos. I’d hate to think they are ruining it for the rest of us for nothing.

First hour guest, paranormal investigator Dean Warsing talked about unusual aerial activity and UFOs he’s seen through third-generation Night Vision goggles.
The military grade binoculars reveal the infrared spectrum, which can’t be seen by the naked eye, he explained. One pattern he’s seen on half a dozen
sightings of UFOs is a kind of “shadowing” whereby a second object maintains the same speed of the first object, and mirrors its movements.

This bumble bee (and 8 of his friends) stayed overnight with the Sedum. My best guess is that Bumble Bees aren’t rigid to their rules to be able to stay overnight; where as Honey Bees must return to the hive. Not to mention that Honey Bees are smaller, have less fur and are thinner skinned and require the warmth of the hive ..Bumble Bees are fatter and have more fur to withstand the coldness of the night.
