I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

A recent Windows update has changed how Windows Hello face unlock works, now requiring a color camera in addition to IR ...

The circuit is based around this Sputnik-looking standalone IR temperature sensor which, as [MakeFunStuff] aptly describes, is “a single-pixel infrared camera that picks up everything in a 90 ...

Unlike infrared optical sensors that use an LED transmitter and IR receiver, the PIR emits nothing. As its “passive” name suggests, it responds only to infrared energy radiated by the object ...

Proximity detection in mobile devices is traditionally implemented using infrared (IR) sensors. However, adding IR proximity sensors to mobile devices increases system cost. This article discusses ...

That said, if you want to know more, read on. An IR (infrared) sensor is a device that detects and measures infrared radiation in any given environment. In this modern age, IR sensors are ...

The growing defense contractor has launched a range of airborne imaging and targeting sensors it says will be cheap enough for the unmanned aircraft the Services want. Anduril touted its “Iris ...

and IoT devices that typically use passive infrared (PIR) sensing. The STHS34PF80 sensor contains thermal transistors that can detect stationary objects, unlike conventional PIR detectors that ...

Infrared sensors are used in consumer electronics such as cameras and cellphones. The need for these devices is increasing, as more flexible and dependable IR sensors are being used in healthcare ...

L3Harris Technologies has been selected to deliver its WESCAM MX-15D electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensor systems for German armed forces’ new H145M multi-role helicopter fleet. These systems ...
