IR sensors rely on an emitter (IR LED) and a detector (photodiode or photoresistor) to measure infrared light and convert it ...

Many devices use infrared (IR) as a signalling medium like, for example, RGB LED strip controllers modules and some TV controllers. Often times these signals aren’t meant for secure applications which ...

How can I determine the strength of an IR signal?<BR><BR>I've heard I can use my point-and-shoot camera but I'm not sure if I have to use any special settings on the camera.<BR><BR>I want to compare ...

The infrared signals used by remote controls are being captured by the IR Widget which operates in a way that makes it compatible with modern multitasking operating systems. The hardware was designed ...

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 ...

Coupling mid-infrared “idler” photons with near-infrared “signal” photons enables cheaper, smaller and more efficient machines for uses such as greenhouse gas monitoring to medical diagnostics.
