How to make Infared Goggles out of Welding Glasses

Today we are making a simple modification to a pair of welding glasses to allow you to see the near-infared light. I took my finished pair outside to see what would happen, and they work great!

it is impossible to replicate real night vision technology at home. u can screw around with ir light all you want but it wont compare.

[earthviz]

@hasnachos Sounds like a challenge.

[REALDualDesertEagle]

Would these work as nightvision goggles if u added a bright infrared torch?

pls reply

[earthviz]

@REALDualDesertEagle They won't since humans still cant see true infrared without a camera of some sort. These see near-infrared, still in the visible spectrum.

[earthviz]

That was the problem I had with cellophane too. Most of it that I have seen you cannot see through either. I have more of the stuff I used in the video, and I could send you some for about $5 if you're interested. Pm me if you are.

U shoulda pointed camera at the sun

are you gay.?

[c0rnholio6669]

how far can you see with that/

[Rodboy25]

You copied KipKay you ass wig!

@hasnachos

Well that's false since there are many different types of nightvision technology. You yourself probably have a camera or camcorder that has infrared mode. That is simple nightvision. True, it would be almost impossible to hack something like a light amplification tube or thermal optic, but simple infrared technology is not that hard.

[Blacklblskate54]

Give reference to where you stole this from.

Kipkay - Account where this was stolen from.

[TheeAldeen]

DAMn that audio about blew my speakers yo - fix that

[hasnachos]

@REALDualDesertEagle no.

[hasnachos]

@earthviz its not even a challenge at all. you cant make intensifier tubes or phosphor screens at home never mind the micro channeling plate. this camera ir thing is just an invisible flashlight. REAL night vision technology takes light photons in the atmosphere and processes them through intensifier tubes to be displayed on a screen. there is no illumination. ir would travel for 100 ft at most. night vision illuminates the backround completely.
