MEMS IR Sensor Detects Occupancy

July 26, 2011 By Randy Frank

Donna Sandfox, MEMS product manager with Omron Electronic Components discusses the company’s thermal IR Sensor at Sensors Expo 2011. With eight microelectromechanical system (MEMS) chips in the sensor, the D6T-8L can determine occupancy for several building automation, commercial and consumer applications. The sensor is in development so for more information consult Omron Electronic Components. To […]
