What about an incredibly bright set of IR lights? Surely that would cause most cameras (at least IR ones) to massively overexpose. It might only work at night though.
- dylan604 7y agoTo me, this is the best way to go. I've seen the hats with the UV LEDS embedded in the brim, but why not around the collar of a shirt?. The only side effect I see is UV light directly in the face. Not sure if the UV wavelengths/intensity can be low enough to blind a camera to not cause odd tan lines or worse?
- blincoln 7y agoUV LEDs probably won't do much against cameras. You want NIR, around 700-800nm. Security cameras are generally sensitive to it, unlike UV.
- dylan604 7y agoThat's even better. IR won't cause skin cancer. Either way, blinding the camera with lights that are invisible to other people unlike these outfits would be much more effective. You can still be subversive without advertising it to anyone. If you're recruiting, then sure, where these outfits. If you actually want to not be seen by the cameras, make the cameras unable to see.
- Igelau 7y agoThe cameras won't recognize you when you literally catch on fire.
- starky 7y agoYou are correct that it would only work at night since a majority of cameras out there have IR Cut Filters for daylight colour accuracy. Not to mention the safety risks of strapping IR LEDs that are that bright at other people's eye level.
