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 ...

Under the JST Strategic Basic Research Program PRESTO, Associate Professor Ayumi Ishii of Teikyo University of Science with her team members has developed a new near-infrared light sensor by using a ...

Lidar systems use pulses of infrared light to measure distance and map a 3D scene with high resolution, allowing autonomous vehicles to rapidly react to obstacles that appear in their path. But ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today the upcoming launch of a new MelDIR-brand 80×60-pixel thermal-diode infrared sensor (MIR8060C1) with a 100°×73° ...

Prof. Jong-Soo Lee’s team realizes a “hybrid photosensor” combining quantum dots and two-dimensional semiconductors - Proposes a low-cost, large-area platform to replace expensive conventional sensors ...
