Well recently i’ve had a lot of requests on how i’ve attached my BP filter to my camera… so i thought i might as well post a write up…
Note: in the pitures i’m using the original focus lens that came with the camera but this method could also be employed with a wide angel lens or a fisheye lens. Also it this technique can employed with any camera that has a manual focus lens. For fisheye or wide angle lens your bandpass filter need to be at least 30mm in diameter.

For the past few weeks i’ve been doing my research into multitouch, and the various types of cameras used by people over at NUIGroup.com, as their IR sensors. I narrowed my choice to 2 the Phillips SPC900-NC and the Xbox360 Live Vision Camera. By seeing a few tests Daddyoli did and and the recommendation of the Xbox360 Vision Cam given to me by both Daddyoli and Fairlane. I went with the Xbox360 Live Vision Camera.
I purchased it for just over $13CAD from an excellent seller at ebay. For $13 the camera proved to be well worth the money. And the IR filter was easily removed. Below are the steps i performed to get the camera to work in an FTIR setup. (Basically its the removal of the IR Filter).
