Do your homework AFP, infra-red rays are invisible to human eyes but not to cameras. You don't see beams of light come out of your remote control when you change channel do you?

LOL, yes, I would say so. Unless they use them strictly in Otaku areas such as Akiba.

What part of "NEAR infra-red" are you having trouble with?
The product is never going to be successful. Anyone foolish enough to buy and wear these is sticking a big, flashing light over their head that announces to security people, "I AM A SUSPICIOUS CHARACTER BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO THWART YOUR SECURITY CAMERAS." Someone wearing these into an airport can guarantee they will be pulled aside for a personal body search - every time.

@Fadamor: Are you superman? no human can see ANY infra-red ANYTHING. Do your homework or at least google it.
