What is the...

[tres]

cheapest method of recording "night vision" video?

I sleep walk most nights.

End up doing very stupid stuff,

like scaling a wall of shelves, and waking up when i'm 5' off the ground.

Or putting my work clothes under my pillow.

Or turning my bed around the room.

Or making a "den" on the floor with quilts.


I thought it might make for some interesting viewing in the morning, although don't want to spend huge amounts!

Webcam + IR light source.

I am.
I lock my front door, I kid you not.

Webcam + IR light source.

Any webcam able to pick up IR light??

Just leave the light on.

I think i'm with the masses when I say it's impossible to sleep with the light on!

Any camera will pick up ir light, i just said webcam because you asked for the cheapest.

Sounds great mate, thank you. I have webcams, now just to find a IR light..

Yeap, it's a way of testing to see if an infra red device works (shine it into a webcam).

Wear one of those eye masks. Although finding a good IR light source would be better.

Awesome, thanks!

Hehe how random

 

[TaKeN]

This will be interesting to say the least

I put them on one day, and woke up in the living room, with the duvet draped over the sofa onto a table, with me asleep underneath

 

[spirity]

Please say you'll youtube the results.





And wear pyjamas. Please.

 

[tres]

I will.

I'll tidy my house first.
And wear boardies at the least.

 

[Rameses]

That is pretty damn cool

OP: Get an Beurer Infrared Lamp! Very cheap.

Not that I want to watch you sleep or anything..........
