HOWTO: Build a night-vision webcam

Lee Vonk here rips off the filter from a Logitech QuickCam making it a night-vision webcam. You can apply the same procedure to morph your own without any hassles. Make sure not to damage the lens and the light sensitive capacitors of the CCD while removing the filter.
