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

As the U.S. Army produces third-generation forward-looking infrared (FLIR) sensors, officials are exploring emerging capabilities that might be integrated into fourth-generation systems. FLIR ...

We all know that feeling: you've turned the lights off and are almost asleep when you hear that infamous buzz. A mosquito is hunting in your bedroom. The dance commences. You could turn on the lights, ...

While a mosquito bite is often no more than a temporary bother, in many parts of the world it can be scary. One mosquito species, Aedes aegypti, spreads the viruses that cause over 100,000,000 cases ...

Thermal infrared (IR) energy is emitted from all things that have a temperature greater than absolute zero. Human eyes, primarily sensitive to shorter wavelength visible light, are unable to detect or ...

Researchers have developed a highly sensitive method for detecting hotspots in the environment, such as bushfires or military threats, by harnessing the focusing power of meta-optical systems.

As evidenced by the Covid-19 pandemic, quick and non-invasive techniques to assess body temperature have become necessary. In various locations, including hospitals, airports and schools, non-contact ...

A technology that enables the fabrication of "ultra-miniature infrared sensors" in desired shapes and sizes using room-temperature three-dimensional (3D) printing has been developed for the first time ...

The automotive night vision market is rapidly growing, driven by advancements in infrared AEB technology and demand for enhanced vehicle safety features. Infrared sensor adoption, multi-sensor fusion, ...
