Title: IR and bw cameras
Post by: devans on February 19, 2006, 12:05:44 PM

Doing some gooogling, I came up with some
'hacks' to make my bw cameras more sensitive
to ir range.  I am holding off on this until
I have another issue and warrantee issue
settled.  Recording my remotes flashing when
buttons were pressed gave me the idea.

In short, removing an ir block filter and
substituting a deep red filter does the trick
according to others.

Another site had an ir spectrum floodlight
set-up.   Coool!  Some thieves are targeting
a family member, and I need evidence to file
charges.  This is my project for today.  Wish
me luck!

I posted this response on the other forum format,
you may not have seen it yet.

Was wondering if you could post the links to these mods.

Thanks
