An Infrared close object sensor installed on an industrial vehicle detects objects or pedestrians located in a hazardous area. When it detects a problem an audio/visual indicator makes an alert, that ...

STMicroelectronics is launching a human-presence and -motion detector to enhance security systems, home-automation equipment, and IoT devices that typically use passive infrared (PIR) sensing. The ...

The CLI700 reflective object sensor consists of an 880-nm aluminum-gallium-arsenide (AlGaAs) infrared emitter and an npn, buffered, open-collector IC. Both are mounted on a custom, four-leaded TO-72 ...

The RPR-0730 is a compact reflective optical sensor (photo reflector). It employs an infrared VCSEL, which offers higher ...

Once you have a track and a kart to race on it, what’s missing? A lap counter that can give your lap times in hardcopy, obviously! That’s what led [the_anykey] to create the Arduino-based Lap Timer to ...

Suitable monitoring and control of process temperatures require exceptional guidance by the producer or a basic understanding of the measurement techniques required on the part of the customer.

Millions of infrared sensors are sold each year for communications and sensing systems, and they quietly power many of the technologies that underpin modern society. Even though we can’t see the ...

Temperature is one of the most frequently measured parameters, and with good reason. Temperature serves as an important indicator of the condition of an object in machinery, medical diagnostics, ...

The University of Hawaii (UH) has released the first image obtained using its new 16-megapixel HAWAII 4RG-15 (H4RG-15) image sensor on the UH 2.2-meter telescope on Mauna Kea. This represents a ...

(InfraRed remote control) A handheld, wireless device used to operate audio, video and other electronic equipment within a room using light signals in the infrared (IR) range. Infrared light requires ...
