And blinded by security cameras?
Seriously, wouldn’t being able to see infrared basically make you see night vision cameras like they are street lights?
Not really. While I don't have the exact numbers, the output of an infrared LED is no higher (usually) than an LED in the visible range. My security cameras have an array of 10 or so LEDs.
So looking at a security camera would be roughly equivalent to staring at a light bulb.
Ok, so not really bright, but visible. I smell the plot to a bank heist movie.
