The Camera Spike allows the player to see anything in front of it using thermal imaging in a box at the top left corner of the player's HUD, replacing the mini-map.

 * Players with the pro version of the perk Ninja will be undetected by the camera spike.
 * Camera Spike is the first "item" in all of the Call of Duty Series where it can replace the mini-map instead of hiding or covering it up.
