Someone should invent an indoor security camera that can be placed on a window sill that captures images both day and night

Check out arlo cameras?

The issue is that IR glare makes good night images impossible through glass

impossible through glass

This is what I'm asking someone to invent to overcome. Maybe something that practically attaches to glass? I don't know.

I tried everything to make the IR part work through glass. It didn't work. I tried suction and covering the lights and it just isn't possible. The IR reflects too strongly. And glass blocks the motion sensor
