DOWA’s state-of- the-art technique for infrared LED is applied to various areas like security, infrared data communication, medical industry, car industry and so on. DOWA’s infrared LED is unique and provides high performance.
Technical area of infrared LED
DOWA Electronics Materials Co., Ltd. has provided high performance infrared LED for medical sensors, medical equipments, encoder of ink jet printers, security camera and infrared data communication markets which are growing.
Sensor applications
≫ Touch panel, Human sensing, Encoder, Bill sensor
DOWA’s infrared LED is used for sensing of specific objects such as bill sensor or smoke sensor because of DOWA’s advantage which is to be able to provide various and narrow wavelength ranges.
DOWA provides point source LED which emits narrow and parallel light.
Point source LED is effective for encoder application.
Although infrared light is invisible, infrared LED is used for a lot of applications.
Data communication
≫ IrDA, Cordless headphone, Remote control
DOWA’s infrared LED with high switching time and high power enables to achieve high speed and long distance data communication.
DOWA’s infrared LED is used for IrDA module and cordless headphone.
Light source of infrared camera
≫ Security camera, Night vision, Biometrics
Since invisible infrared light enables to sense dark objectives without illuminating brightly, it is effective for security camera or night vision.
DOWA’s high power infrared LED enables camera to capture distant objectives more clearly.
Prospect of infrared LED
Infrared LED is expected to be applied to new areas such as home appliance which require energy saving, medical or security market.
Human sensing
Human sensing enables home appliance such as television or air conditioner to be turned off automatically in a room where nobody is. This application attracts more attention in terms of environmental protection by energy saving.
Night vision of car
Infrared LED enables to sense a car on an opposite lane or a man at night. In the future, night vision can sense an objective or a man in all directions and be combined with a safety system controlled by a computer. Infrared LED supports safe driving.
Finding microbe
Infrared LED enables to brighten microbe in human body which special chemical is put into. Thus, infrared LED will be useful to find microbe or diseased area more quickly and easily. This technology can enhance the rapid development of medical area.
Development considerations
The most important is to review what kind of advantage you need for each special market and how better support you can get for your development.
