Heat sensing cameras for UAVs

Hi!  New guy here!

My main interest in UAVs is for Search and Rescue capabilities.  I live in one of the largest counties in the US, much of which is remote and all of it is desert.  I have several obstacles to overcome due to our remoteness and emptiness of my wallet. :)

I would like to have a camera mounted in my UAV that is capable of heat sensing to aid in finding people that are lost in the desert.  Problem is that the cheapest and lightest I've been able to find so far costs about $3000 and up.  Does anyone know of any more economical solutions currently available?

Thanks for the site and a pre-emptive than you for your responses!
