CODY, Wyo. (AP) — The Park County Sheriff’s Office now has access to a Wyoming Civil Air Patrol plane that’s equipped with infrared technology to help crews during search-and-rescue operations.

The plane, based in Jackson, uses imaging technology that senses infrared radiation typically emitted from a heat source and displays it on a video screen. The cameras can be used to help pilots and drivers steer their vehicles at night and in fog, or to detect warm objects against a cooler background.
