Inspired by the infrared sensory organs of snakes, which allow them to detect prey in complete darkness, researchers at UNIST have harnessed artificial intelligence (AI) to develop a sensor material ...

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 ...

As drone threats push detection ranges outward, C-UAS performance is increasingly decided at the limits of visibility—where ...

Daylight Solutions’ ECqcL technology enables users to access many different wavelengths across a wide spectrum. Mid-infrared lasers have traditionally been large and bulky, making them far too ...

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 ...

From Silicon Valley to Seoul, the deep-tech company reveals invisible value — turning waste into worth. STRATIO, a deep-tech company operating between Silicon Valley and Seoul, officially launched its ...

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 ...

The F-22 will receive an embedded set of TacIRST sensors as part of the Infrared Defensive System to enhance aircraft survivability and lethality. Lockheed Martin announced on Jan. 22, 2025, that it ...

As radar technology continues to advance, it offers an increasingly broad range of capabilities, making it a viable alternative to traditional passive infrared (PIR) sensors. With radar’s enhanced ...

Physicists at ETH Zurich have developed a lens that can transform infrared light into visible light by halving the wavelength of incident light. The study is published in Advanced Materials. Lenses ...
