Glass is known to completely block infrared waves from a detector. Aluminium foil no answer.
Motion detectors are: infrared detectors, ultrasonic, microwave, radiowave and... dogs.
Infrared detectors are commonly used to detect wavelengths in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum. They can be made using various technologies, such as thermopiles, pyroelectric detectors, and semiconductor-based detectors like InSb or HgCdTe detectors. These detectors convert infrared radiation into an electrical signal that can be analyzed or used for various applications.

In infrared absorption spectroscopy, the most commonly used detectors are thermocouples, pyroelectric detectors, and photoconductive detectors. Thermocouples measure temperature changes due to absorbed infrared radiation, while pyroelectric detectors respond to changes in temperature by generating an electrical signal. Photoconductive detectors, often made from materials like lead sulfide or indium antimonide, change their conductivity in response to infrared light. Each type of detector has its own advantages, depending on the specific application and wavelength range.

Materials that can block infrared body heat detectors include thick layers of clothing, mylar thermal blankets, and materials with high thermal resistance like ceramics and metal foils. However, it's important to note that blocking body heat detection may be unethical or illegal in certain situations.

An infrared detector needs a power source to operate and it is used to active a relay that can be used as a switch.
To effectively block infrared radiation, you can use materials that are opaque to infrared light, such as metal foils, certain types of glass, or specialized films designed to block infrared radiation. These materials can absorb or reflect the infrared radiation, preventing it from passing through.
Yes, glass can block some infrared light, depending on the type of glass and its thickness.
