## Description

<!-- SECTION:DESCRIPTION:BEGIN -->
Order components (SMD IR LEDs, IRLML6344 MOSFETs, ATtiny85, TP4056 charger, LiPo battery) and breadboard a minimal circuit with 4 LEDs. Test against iPhone, Android, laptop webcam, and USB security camera to verify bloom/whiteout effect at 940nm. Measure effective range and daylight performance.
