IP cam IR LED cover

thingiverse

The IP cam IR LED cover I found here did not work for me so I created my own. I use this generic IP cam to keep an eye on my printer without making multiple trips to the printer. The cam has 11 IR LED's and the printer has LED lights so a lot gets washed out with too much light at night so this covers the IR LED's letting the printers lights illuminate the prints. The lens shroud measured about 22.7mm OD so I made the center hole 22.5mm ID that way I could print it in TPU and it would stretch enough to go over the shroud and be held on tight enough to not go anywhere. As you can see the fit worked out great. When I put the phone in front of the cam to take a pic. with the cover on you can see in one pic that the IR LED's came on and shined through the cover (at least as far as the phones camera is concerned) which is made in black Foxsmart TPU with just 10% infill so time will tell if that blocks the IR light enough or if I need to reprint with more infill or put tape over it.
