night vision camera
Low-light imaging device
A night vision camera captures images in low-light or dark conditions, using infrared sensors or image intensification technology to see what the naked eye cannot.
Security cameras, wildlife monitors, and military equipment often incorporate night vision: The night vision camera caught footage of a raccoon raiding the trash.
Smartphone apps sometimes label their camera modes this way, though with limited actual capability.
