IR-Cloak is a wrap around frame designed to shield the maximum amount of your eye measurements from being captured on technology using infrared for illumination or mapping/scanning. With adjustable nose pads and flexible silicone temple ends, IR-Cloak is extremely comfortable and accommodating to all facial features.

Frame is not reflective to cameras (works with IR-blocking lenses only)

Infrared blocking lenses turn black on infrared cameras to remove critical eye measurements

Appreciate the info and link, but $168 for what is essentially a few dollars of SOLAS tape and a pair of IR laser safety glasses? Bruh.

it was a reply to "Now would be a good time to start a line of headwear that has infrared leds to shield your face from cameras."

i won't buy it but it's already out there. He probably produces them alone and can't sell them for less than that.

If you've got the time, diy; if you've got more money than time, $168 may be preferable. There are people who won't be making that much money this month, there are others who buy media platforms as a hobby for $44000000000 🤷

Hm. I wonder if I could get those lenses in my prescription. That would be neat.
