What is infrared sensor?

An infrared sensor is an electronic instrument which is used to sense certain characteristics of its surroundings by either emitting and/or detecting infrared radiation. Infrared sensors are also capable of measuring the heat being emitted by an object and detecting motion. Infrared sensors are components which can detect and produce light in the IR wavelength range. IR sensors have IR light source, medium, optical components and the IR detector. The medium can be a vacuum in case of thermal imaging systems or can be atmosphere
