Researchers have found a way to integrate active and passive infrared imaging capability into a single chip, opening the way to lighter and simpler dual-mode cameras. High-performance infrared cameras ...

A passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) is an electronic sensor that measures infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view. They are most often used in PIR-based motion detectors.

Tempe, Arizona - Southwest Microwave, a leading global supplier of perimeter intrusion detection systems, has announced the introduction of the advanced Model 420 Passive Infrared (PIR) Sensor for ...

Researchers have found a way to integrate active and passive infrared (IR) imaging capability into high-performance infrared cameras. Used in civilian and military applications, the cameras often fall ...

This segment is expected to hold its dominating position during the forecast period. People and motion sensing is the key application area of pyroelectric infrared detectors. Every object or substance ...

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 ...

High-performance infrared cameras are crucial for civilian and military applications such as night-vision goggles and search-and-rescue operations. Existing cameras usually fall into one of two types: ...
