For those who are new to Smart IR, it’s a device that acts as an infrared (IR) control hub. The idea is to let you control ...

Toxic metals are pushing infrared detector makers into a corner, but NYU Tandon researchers have developed a cleaner solution ...

The infrared signals used by remote controls are being captured by the IR Widget which operates in a way that makes it compatible with modern multitasking operating systems. The hardware was designed ...

Researchers have developed a new solution using colloidal quantum dots as an eco-friendly alternative to the toxic heavy ...

Hardware development often involves working with things that can’t be directly perceived, which is one reason good development tools are so important. In appreciation of this, [David Johnson-Davies] ...

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 ...

A research team from the Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (AIOFM), the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. Space is filled with bizarre signals that we scramble to put meaning to — and now, researchers ...

The evolution of communicative signals involves a major hurdle; signals need to effectively stimulate the sensory systems of their targets. Therefore, sensory specializations of target animals are ...
