APO RESEARCH · REPORT
Infrared (IR) LED
Infrared rays are electromagnetic radiations in the nonvisible spectrum of white light, which range from 1300 to 1700 nm. Infrared light emitting diode (IR LED) is a solid-state lighting (SSL) device, which emits light in the infrared range. It spreads the light on a vast area rather than concentrating it or in other words IR LED’s have a wide field of view. These LED’s find their extensive use in security and surveillance cameras, along with automated driving vehicles.
