The camera consists of many IR thermometers arranged in a grid with a lens to focus a thermal image on it. This is the same idea as using a light camera to focus a light image on an image sensor.
The thermal imaging camera does not send out an IR beam at the target, same as an IR thermometer does not send out an IR beam at a target. They onlly measure the temperatures where they are pointed.
But if you can modify either of these to find treasure, then post the details of your mods here so we can all try it out to see how well it works.
