After decades of intense research, surprises in the realm of semiconductors—materials used in microchips to control ...

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.

Phasmophobia is a new horror game that launched via Steam early access last month, and it tasks players with exploring various haunted locales while collecting evidence to try to figure out what kind ...

Shortwave infrared light (SWIR) sensors are desirable in a broad range of applications, particularly in the service robotics, automotive, and consumer electronics sectors. Colloidal quantum dots tuned ...

The second paper, appearing in the journal Nano Letters and led by graduate student Pooja Reddy, describes a clever method to ...

InVisage's new image sensor for infrared cameras could help drones avoid trees and could aid virtual reality headsets in seeing where you're pointing. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to ...

The new method, which uses quantum dots, performs as well as or better than current infrared light sources while being much ...

Trinamix partners with Aumovio to bring fingertip alcohol detection sensors to cars by 2029 using near-infrared spectroscopy ...

Light sensors often use an infrared LED as a light source. Infrared LEDs have a greater intensity than LEDs that emit visible light. And when infrared photodiodes are used the sensors are relatively ...

I needed a multichannel line tracker sensor module for an upcoming project. A quick search found several versions of infrared line tracker sensor modules that met or exceeded my demands, but I picked ...

Traffic lights might seem like they let cars stop or go randomly, but that's not always the case. Many of them use special sensors that detect vehicles.
