    Just to put this out there, the word infrared comes from the latin prefix "infra-" meaning below and "red" which is at the end of the visible light spectrum. So infrared is the invisible spectrum that is contiguous to the red end of the visible spectrum.

    Collin is awesome, I'm watching his videos for the exact same reason i started studying electrical engineering.

    Thank you for actually explaining things and showing us how to MAKE things. Instead of just hanging out and chatting.

    This is pretty much the only reason I watch this channel. That and some of the robot projects.

    Collin make your own channel so we can get to ultraviolet. This is too awesome.

    @FlyHighRC386 I'm guessing a heat seeking missile would have a series of sensors on it. When it's target changes direction each sensor would read a different amount of IR and the goal of the Missile would to always have all IR signals the same so it would probably adjust it's fins until the signal is equal of all sensors (facing it's target) pretty simple stuff. Look up a Solar Panel tracking system, it probably uses something similar to that.

    @Dri0m you do know that device you made will pickup regular light as well thus making it not as effective

    @Archer7Tadayoshi You mean to light up the scene for an IR camera? They do that.

  • @Nadrealis

    That piezo buzzer has how many inputs? Power and GND or more? Anyway, we could control something else besides the buzzer right? As long as the load resistance is equal to the buzzer?

    @YoWooDDecks Look up the output curves (light output vs frequency) in the factory data sheet to see if a given LED will put out IR.

    @NightTurkey82 How would it work? What heat is it looking at? And would the heat of the engine mess it up?

  • @PunakiviAddikti
    @PunakiviAddikti 8 лет назад +1

    Cameras can indeed pick up infrared light and present it as white or purple because the LCD displays don't have a infrared output. So they try to produce the color they see with colors that exist in the display (RGB).

  • @C4Fernandez
    @C4Fernandez 13 лет назад

    So it's the electro-magnetic waves sending the information from my remote control to my T.V. The phototransistors in the cameras detect the electro-magnetic waves and that's why camera detect infrared light and that's how the motion detecting devices on the wall in schools and offices and the motion detecting hand driers. Wow! It wasn't a bad thing to learn about advanced electronics and circuitry! I really find it amazing!

    Okay this may sound strange, wanting to make a board of all infrared LED,s , let’s say 2”x2” and I want em to pulses between 10hz to 14hz and make adjustable . How would I make it pulse???? 12v power if possible?

    I love Collin's Lab, Circuit Skills, Make Presents, every single Make: video apart from Sylvia's Super Awesome Mini Makers' Show. She's just showing off that she's being famous because of her Awesome father, and that she couldn't do any of this without her awesome father, and that her awesome father has everything I could possibly want, and that her father is awesome!

    Is this true?

    • @ravener96
      @ravener96 10 лет назад +4

      depends on the wattage, you are litterally just heating up the paint. try using an electric heater instead.

    UV is much more interesting. For example, scan your ID or drivers license with UV light. You'll see features that you don't see in normal light. Pass some U.S. currency over the UV light too. Features pop out.

    Geek-a-lots, you might like "freetrack" (google), (free software foundation) head tracking software that uses your webcam to track 3 IR Leds (for instance, mounted on a head mic &/or ear phones) to track your head position.
    Great for 3d racing games etc as you can look around in 3d.. although you still have to look at the monitor.
    If you have a good Gfx card (nvidia red cyan is pretty good, if you can't afford a 3d monitor).. then you can Geek-a-lot in VR too.
