An Egyptian engineering scientist who works as an assistant professor in a German university successfully developed the military Forward-looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, (the thermographic cameras) in order to be used for scientific factors.

Yomna Abdelrahman is one of the most successful scientists in the technological field. She is a former professor in Stuttgart University and an electronic defense researcher. Her technological research is one of the most five prominent researches.

The cameras which were only used by the German military for its ability to see in the dark cost 40000 EURO now.

Abdelrahman told "SEE" that she can measure and predict the changes of the human body. She added that she is able to know the medical condition of a person, their temperature which helps in detecting liars.

The camera is as small as a cigarette pack which helps in detecting terrorists as well. It is supported by a software technique which includes multiple colours; each colour has a different meaning.
