can a home made infra red camera allow you to see infra red beams used in home security?

i was on youtube and i saw a video that taught me how to make a night vision camera . to do this you need 4 red celofane lens cut outs and 6 blue celofane lens cut outs placed in the lens in a pattern of blue red blue red blue red. it said that it would prevent all light from exiting the lens except for infrared beams. than if you point the infra red beams at somthing and look at the same object with a digital camera made in the seventies that can see infrared beams you can use it as night vision. my question however is, does home security and motion sensors use infrared beams to sence movement in a room and if so if you use just the infrared sencing camera could you see the infrared beam and avoid it ? im not intrerested in using this so i can use this to rob people im just curious. best wishes

Home security systems.?

Does anyone know about home security. I want to hook up a motion detector to a camera and then to to a computer.
Is that at all possible or are there other ways of capturing the "bad guy" on a PC hard drive?

My area just had a rash of break ins. Currently rent a townhouse and own 2 big dogs?

Any advice on any low cost home security? wireless cameras, motion detectors (that my dogs won’t set off) etc (
I watch a lot of "To Catch a Thief" but the stuff on their is expensive)

Can you recommend an inexpensive home security camera that activates when motion is detected?

We have had some trouble recently with someone messing with our cars while we are gone. We want to purchase an inexpensive home security camera, something we can set up outside. But it would have to be motion activated, and possibly be able to view in the dark. I don’t know anything about security cameras, and in the process of trying to read up on them, I’ve just become more confused. We don’t have a lot of money, so any inexpensive suggestions would be helpful. They would have to be wireless as well. I don’t know how or what we would use to record the video…like I said…I don’t know anything about security cameras…any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks
