NIGHT VISION

 NIGHT VISION  

  My son asked me to make a night vision adapter for his Lego Vision Comand camera  (Logitech quick cam in a Lego brick). After looking at other ideas like which use power from the USB http://users.informatik.haw-hamburg.de/~lego/Projekte/extended_camera/extended_camera_englisch.html I decided to make a battery powered one which works well, each of the 8 Infrared LED's (LD271)  is conected staight to the battery in parallel without any resisters, which I am told is not the best way to wire it, but it has worked without any problems, we have now added a switch. By the way you can only see it working thought a camera as they can see Infrared light.
