The Incredible Growth of INFRARED SENSOR Industry
The Incredible Growth of INFRARED SENSOR Industry A passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) is an electronic sensor that measures infrared light (IR) emitted by objects in its field of view. They are most commonly used in PIR based motion detectors. PIR sensors are commonly used in security alarms and automatic lighting applications. PIR sensors detect general movements, but do not provide any information about who or what has moved. For this purpose, an imaging IR sensor is required.

The term passive refers to the fact that PIR devices do not emit energy for detection purposes. They completely capture infrared radiation (radiant heat...
