Parent is talking about far-infrared (ie, thermal) sensors. Many car models have high-resolution thermal sensors.

The kind of infrared you're thinking of is probably not the kind the sensor can detect. Only thermal imaging cameras can detect far infrared range - the one that can help distinguish hot objects from cold ones. 'Normal' IR cameras only capture near infrared - which tells you nothing about the temperature.
