I'm open to it......

Next year maybe we can swing something. We'll have all winter to plan it out.

For this year we have the LOST and Shawn's soon to be released Scenario in Sept.

For now I'd like to catch up on the field builds - Castle Spool, The Junk Yard In the Jungle...............

Already found the Night-Vision Binoculars that I'll buy once this 24 hour scenario becomes reality geek

Okay. So, some of you know that you can achieve a very cheap nightvision setup by using infrared LEDs and a couple cheap sheets of see-through plastic. I forget exactly how it's done...I'll edit when I find the YouTube video I'm thinking of. What I'm thinking is why not put these sheets on the inside of a paintball mask's lens, and mount strong IR flashlights on either side of your mask, and your marker as well? You could even glue the IR filter to one particular lens so that you could switch back and forth whenever you wanted without having to carry a whole seperate mask. Depending on how you mount the IR lights, they could be removed quickly too.

Thoughts?

Here's the video showing how to make the glasses. What I'm thinking of is the same principle, but with the sheets covering your whole lens, and more powerful lights to let you see farther.

Apparently, you can just buy filters for standard flashlights that render the normally visible beam down to the IR spectrum. So you don't even need to buy new lights if you like what you already have.

got this from the techpb forums so ha we can do it

Hoax. The human eye can't pick up IR/near IR frequencies. Those filters won't let you see IR. You need a camera without an IR filter.
