Infra Red light ! I'm guessing you also asked the question 'What does IR use to receive data' too.

Basically there is an IR diode in the transmitter, and a detector in the receiver. The amount of IR emitted by the diode varies with voltage, so when the detector receives the pulse, it can 'de-code' what's being sent.

How the infrared burglar alarm works?

Transmitting binary ones and zeros via IR (infrared) light is not as complicated as it may appear at first glance. Just as radio stations transmit information using radio waves, infrared devices transmit data using the infrared frequencies of the electromagnetic spectrum. Also, just as you need a compatible device to listen to a radio broadcast, you must have a device capable of understanding and translating incoming infrared signals. All sending and receiving IR devices contain small, dark windows called IR ports. Inside these ports, transceivers (a combination of a receiver and transmitter) send and receive data using the IR frequency. After a device's CPU (central processing unit) sends the binary ones and zeros to the software controlling the IR transmission process, that information is converted into pulses of IR light. The software then forwards the data to the device's transceiver, which transmits the IR signals to another IR port. The receiving device's IR software converts the infrared transmission back into binary digits. IR devices transmit the binary ones and zeros according to a protocol set by the IrDA (Infrared Data Association; http://www.irda.org). For high-data transmissions, such as from a laptop to a printer, both devices must be within a few feet of each other and the IR ports must be within each other's line of site. The data is sent in a 30-degree wide cone from one IR port to another. Depending on the IR software, a pulse of light could represent a digital one, while the absence of a pulse of light could represent a digital zero. High-speed IR devices don't actually transmit data in a serial string of ones and zeros, however. Rather, bits of data are sent in groups to speed up the transmission process. reference:(http://www.smartcomputing.com/articles/archive/r0403/30r03/30r03.pdf?guid=) *note: Search More You Damned Fool!!!

What does ir mean in irreplaceable?

Ir- is an English prefix meaning not. Irreplaceable means something cannot be replaced. Other words using ir- are irrelevant and irregular.


What is the instrumental difference in IR and FTIR?

The main instrumental difference between IR (infrared spectroscopy) and FTIR (Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy) is the way in which the spectra are collected. In IR, the instrument measures the absorption of infrared radiation directly, while in FTIR, the instrument measures the interference pattern created when an infrared beam passes through a sample and a reference. FTIR is generally more sensitive and provides better resolution compared to traditional IR spectroscopy.


What is photonic networks?

Photonic networks are communication networks that use light to transmit data instead of traditional electrical signals. They are faster and can carry significantly more information than their electronic counterparts, making them well-suited for handling large amounts of data in telecommunications and data center applications.


Is there any Flip down monitor in car can be compatible with IR transmit?

There are many in car Flip down monitor with IR transmit in the market. It can make driving more conveniently.

How do Honda Odyssey headphones work?

Honda Odyssey headphones for models made after the year 2003 work using Infrared (IR) technology. A beam of IR light, like the one that is used in your TV remote, is used to transmit audio signals. This has advantages over Radio Frequency (RF) headphones in sound quality and battery life. I lots my Honda Oddyssey headphones and ended up having to find replacements from http://www.audiovideo2go.com which is the only reason I discovered the difference between IR and RF headphones.


How mouse can communicate from computer?

To transmit their input, typical cabled mice use a thin electrical cord terminating in a standard connector, such as RS-232C, PS/2, ADB or USB. Cordless mice instead transmit data via infrared radiation see Ir DA or radio including Blue tooth, although many such cordless interfaces are themselves connected through the aforementioned wired serial buses. While the electrical interface and the format of the data transmitted by commonly available mice is currently standardized on USB, in the past it varied between different manufacturers. A bus mouse used a dedicated interface card for connection to an IBM PC or compatible computer.
