(InfraRed detector) A sensing device that picks up radiation in the infrared band. Used extensively for still and video night vision cameras, cooled IR detectors can sense the makeup of nebulae light ...

A team of researchers at Sandia National Laboratories has developed small, gold antennas that let IR cameras and sensors “see” clearer pictures of thermal radiation for everything from stars and ...

Sofradir is displaying a focal plane array featuring integrated optics at this week's SPIE Defense, Security & Sensing conference. Sofradir, a leading manufacturer of advanced infrared (IR) detectors ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new open source infrared sensor which has been created to support both Raspberry Pi and Arduino powered projects. The IR Detector proximity sensor has ...

(Nanowerk News) What do motion detectors, self-driving cars, chemical analyzers and satellites have in common? They all contain detectors for infrared (IR) light. At their core and besides readout ...

Infrared IR, detectors are widely used to monitor industrial facilities for the presence of fl ames ensuring that the risk of an outbreak of fi re is minimised. A fl ame will fl icker randomly at a ...

This infrared detector circuit uses a passive IR-detector component PID20. It converts heat radiation into electrical impulses. The output voltage of the PID20 increases when an object comes close to ...

Researcher have developed a novel graphene-based infrared (IR) detector demonstrating record high sensitivity for thermal detection. Graphene's unique attributes pave the way for high-performance IR ...

Infrared detectors made with liquid “quantum ink” avoid hazardous materials, offering a pathway to cheaper, safer and ...

Men in particular enjoy the convenience of television remote controls – often to the annoyance of their female partners. Men apparently want to know what they’re missing when the TV is tuned to a ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers from the Graphene Flagship, working at the University of Cambridge, UK, Emberion, UK, the Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO), Spain, Nokia UK, and the University of ...
