I know the availability of the hardware, my last camcorder had it. But...
I think the chance of someone using infrared to monitor anyone's location is highly unlikely. Plus you'd have to stay behind the tarp the whole time, so ideally it'd be used to hide / disguise the heat signature of a building (whatever you may have in there) - you could just as easily use tinfoil to do the same. Eventually there will be a signature show through though
