Is there a possibility to connect IR LIGHT for nightview?

brutella commented 5 years ago

Yes this is possible. But there is currently no space reserved for IR lights in the provided enclosure.

You can use something like this and glue it, just need to find out how to power it:

You can plug it into USB, but then you have to change the source code, or is there any flag (for example --ir-light?), @brutella ?

Or it uses a second power supply,but then you probably need a wall socket adapter...

I would recommend using the ELP 1080P USB camera, which has a waterproof enclosure and includes IR LEDs for night vision.
