I think this is a sale snake oil camera. Though some are geared for night vision in the spectrum and cost $1000's of dollars.

Can't wait for the 1st image. Guess it requires some stem cell injections.

most night vision is monochrome, in green because the human eye can see more shades of green then any other color, because monochrome sensors are more sensitive to light then a color sensors. it seems that they have made a extremely sensitive array of color sensor that can give you daylight like color images from near starlight level of light alone.
so that means no more fuzzy green images.
