DIY Infrared Security Camera

Home security is equal parts fun and functionality if you’re implementing the whole system yourself. Sure it’s less headache to call up the local security firm, have them install a bunch of motion detectors and cameras, and monitor the whole operation, but that’s friggin’ expensive. Instead, there are plenty of DIY alternatives for building your own security system from components easily monitored via the Web. This one takes the guts of a Webcam and an old VHS camcorder and remixes them to create a functional infrared security camera capable of functioning in low light. No more having the neighbor’s cat sneaking up on the porch unannounced with this contraption on duty. ComputerGuru365 offers all the details on making a DIY infrared security camera from spare parts you might already have lying around.
