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 ...

Infrared sensors that detect the short-wave infrared (SWIR) region can clearly recognize objects not only during the day and ...

What if cameras could see through darkness, fog, and smoke at lower cost? A new infrared sensor design could make that ...

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 ...

Hybrid sensor for autonomous driving apps, combines  Ag₂Te quantum dots with fast charge-transporting MoS₂ 2D semiconductor.

How transimpedance amplifiers are used in fiber-optic communications, laser rangefinders, and LiDAR systems. How avalanche photodiodes enhance TIA performance. Application-specific design and topology ...

Eliminating the need for a separate magnetic lid sensor, the CM36262 integrates a patent-pending optical lid sensor with an ambient-light sensor (ALS) and proximity sensor, thus simplifying the design ...

Raytheon has demonstrated a new type of infrared camera that ditches the conventional approach of capturing full video frames ...

Infrared sensors used in thermal imaging cameras and for body temperature detection have been difficult to produce without ...
