   low light cameras

   In a nearby office park, there are a few outdoor   
   surveillance cameras, primarily intended for   
   night security.   
      
   The problem is, the lighting is quite dim,   
   such that no human witness could reliably   
   testify to an intruder's identity.  Are there   
   cameras that operate better than the human eye,   
   in such circumstances?   
      
   Of course, there's infrared, but my experience   
   is they provide fuzzy silhouettes, not precise   
   face features.  Or have they improved?
