    Because the dark color is reflected visible light, it probably reflects more infrared light so looks bright to an infrared camera. We technically shouldn’t even be able to see this image at all, it’s being rerendered in visible light but as infrared is one “color” it’s shown as monochrome

      No shit, that’s the entire point, IR cameras shouldn’t be used at all to ‘see’ seatbelts…
