Many devices use infrared (IR) as a signalling medium like, for example, RGB LED strip controllers modules and some TV controllers. Often times these signals aren’t meant for secure applications which ...

Turns out, dumb devices were never the problem.

Ams Osram has introduced its new IR:6 thin-film infrared (IR) LED chip technology that increases illumination and efficiency in security and biometric applications. The new devices deliver 35% higher ...

Australian company Organic Response controls large lighting installations, which enables each luminaire to communicate with its immediate neighbors in a constructive network. Communication is based on ...

Partners demonstrate operation up to 40MHz Luxeon IR LEDs enabling time-of-flight applications in 940nm, 850nm with range of 3m. High frequency operation of infrared light sources is rapidly gaining ...

Ams Osram has introduced two infrared LEDs (IREDs) with special primary optics, the SFH 4171S and SFH 4181S, in space-saving packages that enable biometric identification in laptops. While facial ...

While more and more consumer products are rushing to include WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity, the simplicity and reliability of infrared has kept it in the game in the game far longer than many might ...

Through use of an unique aspheric lens, the L8506 infrared (IR) light emitting diode (LED) emits a light beam with a directivity of just ±5°. The collimated light beam discharged by the IR LED ...

Scientists have discovered a potentially promising infrared LED and infrared detector component. This compound -- composed of calcium, silicon and oxygen -- is cheap to produce and non-toxic. Many of ...
