Everyone knows by now a bright, reflective foreground kills the ability to see deeper into the background. Flat black paint helps restore the range of your nightvision but what about surfaces like unpainted brick or masonry?
Im looking for something essentially transparent to visible light but absorbs infrared.
I must preserve the aesthetic of a brick feature that unfortunately is almost dead center of my camera frame and is essentially in the bullseye of my IR source. Ideas?
Infrared Reflections
Re: Infrared Reflections
Sadly the best thing to do is stop looking at the Brick JK... But to be honest there are back boxes or mounts at times that can help better position the camera to take care of some of the reflections...
Another thing and Best thing really is to buy an IR Blaster and mount it above your camera facing the area you want.. Just know that it is important to know the FOV and depth your trying to light and find the right IR for your application...

The camera can still see IR from other devices, My suggestion is to purchase some IR blasters and point them at the cameras view. You can then turn off the cameras IR lights. This does not eliminate the issues however it give you a point of control. As the cameras IR Lights are fixed and you will need move the camera to move the lights this is not this way for separate IR lights that you can control and point them how you like.
I hope this helps, Let me know if you have any other ideas.
