This infrared detector circuit uses a passive IR-detector component PID20. It converts heat radiation into electrical impulses. The output voltage of the PID20 increases when an object comes close to ...

Many robotic applications require a sensor to detect close or very close obstacles. Typically, reflective-type infrared sensors are used for this task. But the circuit in the figure shows an infrared ...

Abstract: Infrared maritime object detection is a crucial technology for sea surface monitoring in low-light conditions within maritime Internet of Things (IoT) systems. In practical applications, ...

Abstract: With the rapid development of the low-altitude economy and the turbulence in international relations, the threat of unconventional aircraft has intensified the challenges in airspace ...
