And any EM that passes through a mask is probably going to pass through flesh too. And any EM that's transmitted and not reflected means it can't be imaged by a sensor. Very thin fabric, like a thin white T-shirt, can be transparent to IR in bright sunlight. But that's a fairly rare case. permalink fedilink source parent
