Infrared barriers are devices that use infrared radiation to detect intruders or objects in a specific area. They work by sending out a beam of infrared radiation and monitoring for its interruption.

Applications:

• Alarm systems
• Access control
• Perimeter security
• Industrial automation
• Object counting

Types of infrared barriers:

• Active barriers: Consist of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter sends out a beam of infrared radiation, and the receiver picks it up. Interruption of the beam triggers an alarm.
• Passive barriers: Utilize the natural heat emitted by objects. They observe changes in the thermal background to detect intruders or objects.
