Transform Your Webcam Into An Infrared Cam!

Tried it
on my old Ezonics EZCam II USB webcam.
Does not work in absolute darkness, but it doesn't take much light for it to pick up an image, even the light of a candle is enough. Color is shot to H*. Daylight or normal room light overloads it. This may not work on some newer webcams as the lens is actually coated to block IR.

  To obtain the filter visible in this video you just have to find a photo negative. Usually on its beginning and on its end the negative is black, you simply have to cut two little pieces of it to adapt it to your webcam.
  
  The IR filter I have can be touched without damage, but I don't know if it's the same for all webcams...

All is ok,
but my camera also can catch the light from tv pilot, without any modifications...

- Yes, but
  The whole point of this mod is to block out all visible light and enhance the camera's ability to see IR.
