I've been fiddling with this, too. How do you guys make them? They look like video goggles.

I don't think so. The eye can barely pick up anything over 700nm (ie essentially cannot see), and IR starts at 750nm. If we could see IR, then many IR based nightvision systems would be pretty much flashlights, and chimneys would glow at night.
