Infrared Temperature Sensor Monitor
At Sensors Expo 2011, an expert from Dexter Research shows Sensor Tips’ Randy Frank the company’s infrared TSM temperature sensor module monitoring soil and leaf temperature. The TSM has better than 0.5°C repeatability in the 0-50°C range. For more information about Dexter Research TSM, temperature sensor module, click here. To watch the video, click here.
A Single-Chip Passive IR Temperature Sensor
IR Sensing Used in Instrument Panel Concept
At the 2011 International CES in Las Vegas, an expert in Visteon’s tent demonstrates infrared (IR) technology to sense where a driver points in a concept instrument panel to Sensor Tips senior editor Randy Frank. Occupant interface technology using IR sensing tracks the finger and has advantages over a capacitive proximity sensing. To see the […]
