Smart IR temperature sensors integrate sensors and digital circuits to process environmental information without human interference. They combine IR temperature measurement with high-speed digital technologies. The new smart sensors are the smallest available and allow all settings and monitoring to be controlled remotely from a computer. Smart IR sensors use digital electronics for fast response and software for remote setup, diagnostics, and calibration. An example application is using a smart IR sensor to control a space heater by averaging the temperature in its field of view for more accurate heating than just its own temperature. Smart sensors provide benefits like seeing what's in front and adding safety features.

- 3. What is a smart sensor? “ Smart sensors answer precision sensing needs” Smart sensors are information sensors. These integrate sensors and circuits to process information obtained from the environment without a significant human interference.
- 4. Today’s new smart IR sensors represent a union of two rapidly evolving sciences that combine IR temperature measurement with high-speed digital technologies usually associated with the computer. Photo 1. The new Raytek Digital MI is the smallest smart sensor available today. All settings and monitoring can be controlled from a remote computer in safety away from the production area. picture Smallest smart sensor

- 7. Digital electronics support fast,smart sensors With a few modifications in the ir sensors(analog type),they gave linealised outputs. Now ir sensors are smart transducers with fast response time
- 8. Software adds functionality Smart IR temperature sensors with two-way digital communications are now available, as are software programs that feature remote sensor setup, diagnostics, and calibration pic
- 9. Application making a space heater smart sensor . By taking advantage of the comparators, you can easily design a simple, low-cost control for either radiant or forced-air heaters Figure 1. The IR thermometer mounted on the heater face will average all the IR energy the sensor “sees” in its field of view. This capability allows the heater to react to the actual temperature of the area being heated rather than the temperature at the heater itself. pic
