Adafruit Industries is an open-source hardware company based in New York, United States. It was founded by Limor Fried in 2005. [ 3 ] The company designs, manufactures and sells electronics products , electronics components, tools, and accessories.
A nondispersive infrared sensor (or NDIR sensor) is a simple spectroscopic sensor often used as a gas detector.It is non-dispersive in the fact that no dispersive element (e.g a prism or diffraction grating as is often present in other spectrometers) is used to separate out (like a monochromator) the broadband light into a narrow spectrum suitable for gas sensing.
An IRST sensor on a Sukhoi Su-35. An Infrared Search and Track (IRST) system (sometimes known as infrared sighting and tracking) is a method for detecting and tracking objects which give off infrared radiation, such as the infrared signatures of jet aircraft and helicopters.
Limor Fried is an American electrical engineer and owner of the electronics hobbyist company Adafruit Industries.She is influential in the open-source hardware community, having participated in the first Open Source Hardware Summit and the drafting of the Open Source Hardware definition, and is known by her moniker ladyada, an homage to Lady Ada Lovelace.
A passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) is an electronic sensor that measures infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view. They are most often used in PIR-based motion detectors . PIR sensors are commonly used in security alarms and automatic lighting applications.
If the remote control to be used is also IR-based, there must be an IR sensor within its line of sight that will relay signals to the IR blaster over a wire or radio. The output of an IR blaster (like that of any infra-red remote) is invisible to the human eye because its wavelength is beyond the range of visible light.
A missing skydiver was found dead over the weekend after his parachute "failed to deploy," Louisiana authorities say. The unidentified skydiver − described as an Asian man sporting an orange ...
A modern German Air Force IRIS-T infrared homing air-to-air missile Movement of the seeker head of the IRIS-T. Infrared homing is a passive weapon guidance system which uses the infrared (IR) light emission from a target to track and follow it seamlessly. [1]
