Now and again, a post surfaces on social media platforms like Reddit and Twitter that asks a strange question: does the Nintendo Switch have a hidden camera, and if so, why is it on the Joy-Con? The ...
STMicroelectronics is launching a human-presence and -motion detector to enhance security systems, home-automation equipment, and IoT devices that typically use passive infrared (PIR) sensing. The ...
Melexis' FIR temperature sensor range is designed for temperature monitoring of critical components in EV powertrain ...
The built-in web server, which is hosted on the ESP32, allows monitoring through any device connected to the local network, ...
Vishay’s VEML6046X00 RGB IR sensor is AEC-Q100 qualified for use in vehicle displays and interior lighting. This compact device integrates a photodiode, low-noise amplifier, and 16-bit ADC in an ...
US defence giant RTX feels that advanced electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensors are now well positioned for detecting unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), missiles, and aircraft at extreme ranges. In the ...
In this article, we implement a rain and ice sensor by analyzing the reflection of an infrared (IR) light source. This project uses proven techniques based on multiple reflections of IR light in the ...
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 ...
High-power infrared Oslon LEDs from Osram make lighting installations function with "swarm-like" intelligence. Smart system: Osram's Olson black SFH 4725S. Australian company Organic Response controls ...
Some readers may recall building a line-following robot during their school days. Involving some IR LEDs, perhaps a bit of LEGO, and plenty of trial-and-error, it was fun on a tiny scale. Now imagine ...
