X-Ray Picture of DK2

I posted this on reddit and thought I would share here as well. I stumbled on this when trying to just view the LEDs. It looks really cool.

Cool, but not x-ray. Here's what is happening:
The night vision goggles (or camera) is emitting IR light, and capturing the returning IR light. The plastic front on the DK2 is designed to let IR light pass through (those small white squares you can see are IR LED's themselves) as part of the improved tracking. Because of this, the camera is able to see through the front plastic.

Pretty cool I know.

Nice! I wish my picture wasn't so blurry. I may try to get a better one. That's cool you found another way.
