Weird car driving around with an IR strobe… any ideas?

Hey everyone, there’s been this car driving through my neighborhood about once every couple of weeks. Last night it set off my alarm, so I turned on my remote control LED light bar right as it passed by. I noticed it had what looked like an IR strobe light. Could it be trying to mess with my Reolink Duo 3 security camera? Anyone else seen something like this? Thanks for reading!

Sounds like a plate scanner, probably looking for cars to repo.

Appreciate it, thanks for the info.

Definitely sounds like a repo guy scanning plates.

Someone in the neighborhood might be behind on their car payments. Happens more often than you’d think.
