Abstract :
The paper discusses technical possibilities to build an effective system for sniper detection using infrared cameras. Description of phenomena which make it possible to detect sniper activities in infrared spectra as well as analysis of physical limitations were performed. Three phases of sniper activities were taken into consideration: before, during and after the shot. The simulation of detection ranges was done for the assumed scenario of sniper detection task.
