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 ...

An Infrared close object sensor installed on an industrial vehicle detects objects or pedestrians located in a hazardous area. When it detects a problem an audio/visual indicator makes an alert, that ...

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.

When intelligence-gathering matures from finding and following an individual or vehicle to monitoring entire groups to understand their intent, the narrow, “soda straw” field-of-view of conventional ...

A new software tool enables quicker integration of infrared sensors by optimizing product design’s evaluation, development, testing, and validation phases. More specifically, the tool streamlines ...

It’s called IRST21 and it takes two years to produce a unit from Lockheed Martin in Orlando and Ocala. This highly advanced infrared sensor identifies the heat signature from friction as air passes ...

As the U.S. Army produces third-generation forward-looking infrared (FLIR) sensors, officials are exploring emerging capabilities that might be integrated into fourth-generation systems. FLIR ...

Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD -- For centuries, warfighters have used obscurants like smoke to evade enemies and stay safe on the battlefield. As technology advances and new threats emerge, older ...

The F-22 will receive an embedded set of TacIRST sensors as part of the Infrared Defensive System to enhance aircraft survivability and lethality. Lockheed Martin announced on Jan. 22, 2025, that it ...
