Description

Controls infrared emitters on Chicony IR cameras used with Howdy face-authentication setups. It is useful for users who need to toggle IR lighting so camera-based login works reliably.

IR camera control touches authentication hardware and may affect face-recognition behavior. Confirm supported camera models and avoid exposing biometric workflows on untrusted systems.
