Infra-red Camera

Shown here is a hacked apart Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000, that is going to be employed as an infra-red camera on teh robot. The basic premise is the removal of the infra-red filter (that comes standard on webcams) to allow the CCD chip to detect infrared. Normal light is filtered out with the use of a section of an ordinary colour negative.
