couple ways to do it. bullet with IR embedded or a camera in a housing OR a outdoot armor dome with external IR. catch here is to get the right IR sensitive camera.

 

mechanical cut filters are best and some newer camera's have electronic methods. both work differently based on requirement.

 

IR lenses....IR corrected lenses to be more correct, are required for best focus shift at night.

 

read more here bfore you ask "which one" as you need to understand the lingo before you go there.

 

and last but not least......all IR are created equal. manufactures bulk up the specs so that you feel like you can light up a football field....... whatever they publish cut it by half and you "might" get that.
