IR detector
(InfraRed detector) A sensing device that picks up radiation in the infrared band. Used extensively for still and video night vision cameras, cooled IR detectors can sense the makeup of nebulae light years in the distance. The IR industry is maturing rapidly and is expected to make devices that detect a myriad of conditions, including irregularities in machinery, ice on aircraft wings and faults in circuit boards.
Infrared detection works because most everything in our known world gives off heat, which emits radiation in the infrared band.

No.
To increase the range of an IR sensor, you can use a more powerful IR LED as the light source, implement a lens to focus the emitted IR light, or amplify the sensor's output signal. Additionally, reducing interference from ambient light sources and optimizing the sensor's placement can also help extend its range.
No, IR sensors typically cannot pass through water as water absorbs and scatters IR light, interfering with the sensor's ability to detect objects. This reduces the sensor's effectiveness and accuracy in detecting objects through water.
An IR sensor in a robot can be used for various purposes such as obstacle detection, line following, distance measurement, and object detection. The sensor emits infrared light and detects the reflection to identify the presence or absence of objects in its path, allowing the robot to navigate its environment effectively.
TSOP1738 is Infrared IR Sensor Receiver used in IR receivers to get signals. This is because it is sensitive to 38 kHz.
Well it depends on the tamagotchi. What kind do you have?
just go on google and type how to install mxo12 ir sensoeand then hopfuly u will get ur answer
Passive simply means that the unit does not emit IR light, but does detect it. All warm things emit some degree of IR. a PIR motion detector senses the difference between a warm body and the cold background. Active IR emits IR light to illuminate an area to be "seen" with it's CCD that is sensitive to IR. Most new Sony camcorders use active IR for "night vision". IR alone, with no modifier, simply refers to the spectrum of light known as Infra Red, which is slightly above human's vision range.
how sound sensor work
The Wii Sensor Bar has a row of IR LED lights at both ends of it (the same IR LEDs found in remote controls for your television or other electronics), IR light is a source of heat, the Wiimote picks up on the heat and uses it for triangulation purposes (so the Wii knows where to place the hand pointer on the screen, like a mouse), all of this data, along with the data collected from the gyroscopes and buttons, is sent to the Wii via a wireless bluetooth connection (same connection used for bluetooth headsets for cell phones) Candles can also put out the same IR light/heat as IR LEDs, the Wiimote picks up the heat from the candles just as it did the sensor bar, then it sends that data to the Wii via bluetooth No data is sent via the sensor bar, the sensor bar cord is only used to get power from the Wii to power the IR LEDs
two types one is ultrasonic and other is ir sensors
TSOP sensor is aminiaturized receivers for infrared remote control systems. PIN diode and preamplifier are assembled on lead frame, the epoxy package is designed as IR filter. The demodulated output signal can directly be decoded by a microprocessor. TSOP is the standard IR remote control receiver series, supporting all major transmission codes.
