Kevin,

Any CCD camera can see IR. I am no expert but what I would explore is the
cheapest color camera I could find and then put in a standard light in a
homemade enclosure using an Optical Plastic Filter for Infra Red. One source
is http://www.mars-cam.com/optical/page_12.html
There are also ready made Infra Red light sources. (hope that was half way
clear)

Subject: [ECS] BABY CAM?


Hi All,

I am looking for a good baby cam that I intend to modulate into my video
distribution system.  I have looked at a few but do not know much about
them.  From what I have seen many baby cams have the IR lights so you can
see baby in the dark-but aren't all these B&W?  I would like color.  Could I
get away with a decent low light color camera?  I also don't want to break
the bank.  Any thoughts?

Thanks

Kevin (Expecting "First Time" Father)
