Detecting infrared light is critical in an enormous range of technologies, from remote controls to autofocus systems to self-driving cars and virtual reality headsets. That means there would be major ...

IR sensors rely on an emitter (IR LED) and a detector (photodiode or photoresistor) to measure infrared light and convert it ...

Phlux Technology's Noiseless InGaAs infrared sensors are now being evaluated for use in premium hunting and professional ...

Researchers developed a type of infrared photodiode that is 35% more responsive at 1.55 m, the key wavelength for telecommunications, compared to other germanium-based components. Detecting infrared ...

Detecting wavelengths beyond visible light—for instance, infrared light—offers clear advantages. Case in point is cameras in autonomous vehicles that ‘see’ through smoke or fog and cameras that unlock ...

Phlux Technology, a UK-based manufacturer of avalanche photodiode (APD) infrared sensors, has announced its first products. The Aura family of 1550 nm devices based on the company’s Noiseless InGaAs ...
