Infrared LEDs

[nukleheadmcspazotron]

NAH YA DON'T SAY!!!

[TheMr360elite]

Is it normal that i can see ifared light with just my eyes?

[MrJohnboyofsj]

your like I live in a hotel and upload randomly odd videos to the stupid jap tube

[emmettebrown]

oh.so that's why I don't see any light in the remote. I keep thingking that it is an led. I thought it was busted. then i knew it was IR.

[Fl3xMonSta]

AHAHAHA MINUTES 2:42 XD ahahahahahahaha

[mlockmenace]

Light that is visible to the human eye and runs in wavelength from 400nm to 780nm.. Ultraviolet is not visible to the human eye and runs in wavelength from 10nm to 380nm, x-ray runs in wavelength from 5pm to 10nm.

nm = nano meter 1×10−9

pm = pico meteer  1×10−12

[jhncll]

stupid



[scavengertom]

O7ROADKING did you say pawn shop or porn shopssssssssss

[marsgnu88]

Thanks! :)



[poppop585]

stuped ass trying blind uss

[billpage]

nice cool

[O7ROADKING]

check out the video (How to See in The Dark) By KipKay it looks like it would work and you can buy the old video cameras at yard sales pawn shops good luck

[dfyreman2003]

point 1, Infrared goggles would actually be low pass filtering (you need a bright light for them to work).Try using a 4 to 1 ratio of (4) Congo blue LEE 181 filters and (1) primary red Rosco 27 filter and bright lights or sunlight. DON"T LOOK AT THE SUN!!!

Point 2. the reason IR shows up green in video is because you are blocking blue and red... showing green.

[Russoft]

@dfyreman2003 uh no. Infrared is a lower frequency than red light. It is outside the visible light spectrum, though occasionally light from an infrared LED will "spill over" into visible red. The reason infrared cameras see green is due to the method used to convert infrared wavelengths to visible wavelengths, it has nothing to do with blocking blue and red. It is what one might call "false color", since infrared does not have a color - being outside the visible spectrum.

[psycophobia]

@dfyreman2003 Infrared Goggle Hack For Under $10!! ??? is the same in that video

[VictorasPRS]

@dfyreman2003 Lol Buy green filters and put them in to flash lite And You will Get Strong infared You wound be able to see it wituoh camera

[f22raptorang]

you make me to understand about IR LED

thanks

[AppleiLens]

thanks canadian guy

[xXmysteriousblackXx]

dude you look like adam sandler

[CEWAbenteuern]

0:28 I have the same remote (the one on the left)!

[kiriakoskakos]

when i watch with my photograph its not that bright do you know why?

[CaptCrewSock]

You must live in a basement!!!

[dycarbon1]

Wow this guy can see infrared? He's so awesome!

[lonelyfiddler]

@dycarbon1 ahmmmm there are different IR leds some of these leds can be seen with the naked eye. Although slightly 850 nm wavelength IR's can be seen. But the 950 nm will be completely invisible to the naked eye.

[usbfuse]

if you call this guy stupid for showing a regualar light u are WRONGGGGG because the naked eye cant see ir but with the aid of a camera you can see ir

[bakonfreek]

what camera

[taitamauta]

You forgot to take your medications today!!! bru bbrraa du du du dadd ad hmmm kity kytyb kitty hmmm mu mu maa,,,

[theonewayroad01]

Hey, may be you already know this. There are some 5W Infrared LEDs in the market now. Check them out in Google.

[moonwalker915]

stop fucking your cat!!

[potatothorn]

very cool, and thanks for demonstrating how the camera picks up the LED, other videos lead y to believe " that's not relly night vision, it's a flashlight of sorts" but OK- only the camera is picking up that light

[wuhlei]

I think the filter on the remote is meant to protect your eyes?

[1994sameer]

yo dude does infred light do anytin els ?

[teslata00]

it is very stupid looking directly in the IR LED ... you don't see the light but destroys your eyes.

And yes...any camera, even a cellphone camera can detect the IR light from the remotes. I use it to check the remote after fixing it, or another way to do it use AM Radio set around the minimal frequency on the scale and bring up the remote by pressing a button. There will be some cool sounds.

[pivot3salsa]

thanks thanks

[eglesnest123]

0:27 yes we all know that!

[LunaCBlanc]

Man, that's really cool stuff!

I was wondering, what camera did you use to film this? (Sorry for lack of grammar in english, I'm brazillian x_x)

[soarepaul1407]

you have a sony dsc-h50 camera?

[mhatsko]

hmm thats probably really bad for your eyes?

this video actually cleared up alot of questions I had about IR light, I just bought a trail cam and was trying to figure out how the hell if it's not night vision it works.

So here's another question can I put IR lights on my car and have better visibility at night?

[armlessmcgurk]

only if you look through a digital camera while you drive

[mhatsko]

so what you're trying to say I can go night hiking with an infared spotlight and all I have to do to see in the dark is to take a digital cam with me, and just look at that and I can see where I'm going? Does it need to be any special digital camera?

[armlessmcgurk]

not special but some cameras come equipped wit IR blockers in which case they wont work usually older cameras work though but the spotlight itself would work

[mhatsko]

hmm interesting, wonder why they put IR blockers on the new ones, doesn't seem like it would matter it a cam had one, seems like it would be cheaper to build new cams without an IR blocker...

good stuff Ty armlessmcgurk..!

[armlessmcgurk]

yeah no problem i still dont know why they put the IR blockers like you said but i am very interested in this kind of stuff

[eviljuice409]

no man ir light can not be seen by the naked eye but by most cameras

[mhatsko]

~Excellent~

~Ty~

[TMAmusicInc]

Yep, very cool stuff here. A regular cell phone will also pick it up for all of you guys that want to try it.

[thecleanpig]

what type of camcorders have night shot or night vision mode? Dont remember seeing one with such feature at the typical appliance stores.

[synix09]

Are you the Hulk?

[Tageolsson]

This video was really interesting.

[veejaylab]

great.

[Flea5000000000]

sigh

[lavalamp2717]

That was cool

[pathan106]

u are kool buddy

nice presentation

[beratalbania]

haha it really works i was looking at my tv remotes infrared light

[bossoholic]

Have you ever put an IR (pass) filter on your camera and did some IR videos? Nice instructions! You know a lot about infrared.

[heavymetal20009]

stop looking at the moniter

and this sucks.blammed.

[soldieroffortune1974]

The limitations of Infrared are caused by the intensity (or lack of) of the lights.Not the camera. If you want a night vision device to have greater range,you only need to get brighter infrared Lights. The problem being,that infrared is meant to be kept at close range,with a bright enough LED,you will be able to pick it up with the naked eye or with a scope. Anything with a range over 10 meters would be visible without a viewer.,negating the reason for IR.

[bestamerica]

what is the name of videocamera russoft use it

[bestamerica]

why NO closed captioned in here video

[PorkChop2057]

Nice clip man. I was actually looking for some basic info on IR leds like this. Can you answer a question for me though? I thought about buying those EyeClops night vision goggles from eBay. But they're a toy and the range is like 10 meters. Would it be possible to increase their range by adding an extra array of IR LEDs? Or is it the limit of the camera rather than LEDs? Thanks.

[Pantherspwn]

fun fact: They use cameras connected to ultra bright IR LED's to make night vision goggles. XD

[miketrejo1234]

LOOOSER

[Russoft]

losers misspell the word loser, and go around calling people losers.

[Russoft]

I really don't have time for people like you. Blocked.

[rockypyro1490]

@Russoft damn you guys destroyed the troll! i never knew that was possible

[ccederlo]

lol. It was entertaining & yes infrared is very cool.

For night vision goggles... were u trying to use your camera or how were u trying to make it? It's definitely not as easy as it seems at first glance.

[Russoft]

I realize this is an old comment, but I wanted the "Real thing". I tried to use my video camera once, and it was so ineffective, I gave up. IT looks great when you're pointing it at something, but if you're trying to sneak around in the night, there's not nearly enough light I found.

[wuhlei]

@Russoft have you tried looking for a brighter led?

[NamelessFTW]

sony has that internal infrared filter. when u put it into night vision mode the filter is moved out of the way and lets allows the CCD's full sensitivity to pick up all available light (infrared included).

I'm thinking about removing the filter on my camcorder, but its not a sony so I worry that one of the lenses themselves are actually coated, which means I really wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

[EhudofGera3]

your video is bad.

[infraredtechnician]

heres an old bit of footage testing an infrared illuminator for video (portable IR field lighting kit)

[UzumakiYodaime]

now i try with my camera it works but i ned somone to halp me to make a rc infrared remote control for tv ???? how knows?

[Russoft]

By RC do you mean RF? For a start, I'd look at Linx Technologies on google. You'll find their website. They sell RF transmitter and receiver modules. The FCC regulates the RF spectrum though, so read the regulations before doing too much.

[Russoft]

RC = remote controlled. Sorry, it's too early in the morning. If you want to use IR LEDs, that's probably simpler. I can contract out my engineering smarts for a price, haha.

[DDeafth]

loool just nothing better to do, try it with a cell phone camera, or a web cam, if they dont have a filter, it also works on that

[audiofreeq]

hey Russ heres the new one.

[toxicskater313]

infrared will NOT DAMAGE your eyes.

thats a bunch of crap.

its the same as every other color wavelength... the only difference between red, and infrared.. is that the human eye cant pick up infrared.

[keekaykorapsa]

great job! btw, did you know that infrared beams can do damage to your eyesight by looking at them?

[mike4ty4]

@keekaykorapsa Infrared *LASER* beams, yes, but not a remote. That's not a laser, it's just a little lamp.

[Lcs400]

Whats remote?

[soflabob]

cool video, and informing too!!

I love LED torches (flashlights here in the States)

Funny thing though, my cell phone's camera (Motorola SLVR L7-C) can see the Infrared LED from my TV's remote control.

Freaky.

[FalloutBe]

interesting vid :D

[PerfectDecalibration]

interesting nice.

[hanusingh]

great work..

[arjunus]

Okay.. NIce stuf e? Elektronics...

[88GetInTheOven88]

Yea, quite interesting. Thanks.^^

[jaesungauzakim]

PSP Infrared is more brighter than remote TV control I think because I can just see a red light.

[Alisterhenry]

You can only see a RED light because its using the 850nm InfraRed LED which is closer to the Red spectrum than the 940nm IR LEDs, which are the ones that sony should of have used in the PSP.

[jaesungauzakim]

Where can I get IR led that are bright for IR camera?

[Alisterhenry]

I get mine on eBay.

[jaesungauzakim]

Good for you. I will try to look for Infrared Led Flash light

[bossoholic]

Get a regular (not LED) incandescent flashlight, buy an 850nm+ IR pass filter on Ebay (big enough to replace the lens on the flashlight)- or even a spotlight (not LED), and you got yourself a very powerful IR illuminator.

It wont work with florescent light sources.

[RyuDarragh]

Well, Russoff, for the most part, it's when the light causes damage. Any light, from microwave to gamma, can cause damage by *heating* tissues. You can't focus IR or UV, but they can still cause injury if bright enough and you can't tell how bright they are until you get injured :P

[SeanDaleMitchell]

I wanna get an IR flashlight, or maybe two, for my camcorder since the LED on it is in visible light and it kinda sucks.

[ragingpixels]

cool and thanks for the teaching.

[rushwhq]

sorrry nothin cool, nothin new, u are an ass.hole

[Russoft]

asshole because you watched my video and didn't like it? Sorry I don't follow your lack of logic.

[bboy188]

I believe it is because of the frequency of the IR or somethin like that. Just like radiation waves.

[bboy188]

You really shouldn't point the IR LEDS directly into your eyes, or put them up to your eyeball like that haha. But you should get some off ebay for cheap. Theres a few tutorials on making the infrared/night vision goggles on the internet.

[Russoft]

I heard that once. IT still makes no sense to me. I see no difference between an IR LED and any other visible light LED. Maybe I'm ignorant though. Now an IR laser diode...I understand, lol.

[bossoholic]

It has something to do with the spacing with the semiconductors used

[yankepimp]

it works on a xbox 360 camera its cool flashy

[sabbays]

i am buying some ir glasses, and i was wondering what i should get? i am going to put them on my "toy" gun and will be using it at night. i have seen 5.0 and 3.0, i don't know witch i should get?

[CloudySpike89]

if you get "ir glasses" you wont be able to see anything in ir light anyway. an ir filter only lets ir light pass through it, but since we cant see the ir light, you wont see the light passing through.

if you mean ir goggles, however, thats a different story

[sabbays]

k,lol i have seen goggles for $500, anywhere i can get them cheaper?

[CloudySpike89]

check out the video by KipKay called "how to see in the dark" on youtube

thats the project im working on right now

[audiofreeq]

this is not nightvision its a standard ccd with the IR blocking filter removed then the scene then illuminated with infrared light the actual image colour is black & white when displayed on a colour monitor with componant input we only used the y input giving us green on synch,fed from a cvbs b&w 1v p-p 75ohm signal,the reason for true light amplified nigtvision being green is as i said before,this is NOT nightvision only illuminated with light outside our visual spectrum,turn it off & its dark.

[Russoft]

ooohhh.  Good to know.

[RotogenRay]

that looks like night vision... your camera is picking that up.

that's really cool

[audiofreeq]

are you refering to my video.?it lookslike night vision because we are only using the (Y)

signal on the input showing green only,which happens to be the peak wavelength of the human eye helping us to decern more shades of green than any other colour in the visable spectrum,as for the camera its a std cctv with the ir filter removed and swapped for a 730 nM optical glass,so will only work 730nM-1300nM near infrared,hence quartz halogen lighting,also 288,IR LEDs,

[RotogenRay]

the color of the LED looks like the wavelengths on the screen when you have it on night vision.

[rift240]

faggot!!!!

[chaozxtreme]

What camera are you using?

[audiofreeq]

why,,do people slag off videos if you have nothing constructive to say dont say anything,Russ carry on with the vids most people dont understand infrared let alone the fact the difference between near or far..and as for explaining bandwidth and the inverse square law for light intensity ,,,is it worth it electronics engineering is a no go sublect for most people..by the way russ got my HND ...at last,, lmao

[alex681219]

The camera is a webcam?

[TheBleuBlurr]

Pretty cool!

[phazonxl]

1. Stop looking at your screen. You can simply turn the screen on your Sony camera around and you wouldn't have to look in a different direction.

2. clean your lens.

[mchalls2]

I see! (I'm not from USA or England)

Look!

The infrared led is not a new. This led work in controllers, and lamps, and usb irda ports.... The infrared sensitive cam or webcam isn't also a new.

There aren't newness! (for me)

[Russoft]

thanks for insulting my intelligence.

[bossoholic]

newness LOL

[mchalls2]

boring

and what's the new in this video???

nothing interesting

[Russoft]

learn English.

Then comprehend this:

If it's boring, don't watch it.

[hheennrryy12]

cool you should put more videos like this and please ppl dont make fun of him he is cool and i like the part u say ppl these are remote control hah u probaly no that real funny thanks for the laughter

[tractor101]

you guys are all dicks. hes being a good guy, and teaching people about something interesting. i thought it was cool, you tought me a little about infrared. good job man

[Russoft]

thanks man

[richard2k5]

wtf? thanks for sharing, but dont sound so boring! I always wanted night vision, and i think its cool :D

[GTASADUDE]

Dork

[plexiflexi]

Small talk lesson.

[johnh99999]

LOL 'thats something I found quite cool' 'something cool and interesting to talk about'

seriously!!!

[johnh99999]

wow, you are the dullest person I've ever seen

[Russoft]

why are UKers such assholes?

[audiofreeq]

hey...RUSS..im from the UK and you know were not all like that,,,,,,,lol

[darmstadt2006]

intresting , thanks for sharing

[77umbro77]

nice

[tripplehelix]

I'm 2nd related! Yey :D I love infrared... some remotes do have visible LED's... some flash red.

[Russoft]

oh, so not TRUE infrared? I can imagine cheaper infrared LED's would use a higher frequency than true infrared.

[Irish1PrincessSEY]

so neato, Russoft, I never knew that, green lights, look good an you, Was your light on in your room? the indoor light I mean.Hi!

[Russoft]

yes it was on, but that isn't my room, that's my living room.

[kris2pe]

Oh Preeetty!!!

[zeeisabee]

it seems to me that you have a lot of time on your hands to be talking about infra red light. you should stick to your maths which is much more interesting
