Announcing the new ST60 with Integrated Module. Our Motion Detection — Presence Sensor is targeted for high volume, cost sensitive, drop in applications, where the system designer is interested in a fully functional subsystem, with minimum cost and effort. The passive infrared sensor forms the heart of the system, requires little power to operate and meets or exceeds all industry standard measures for quality and consistency. Designed for “smart washrooms”, “smart homes” and other “smart” applications, the ST60 with Integrated Module is small with a full spectrum output and its battery life provides long service cycles — the heart of “smart” only from Dexter Research.

U.S. Congressman Tim Walberg (R-MI) announced today that funding for Dexter Research Center, Inc. was approved in the Department of Defense Appropriations Bill that recently passed the House. The bill will now go to the U.S. senate to be voted on as a part of the fiscal 2008 appropriations process.

Not. Never happened. The motion sensing system depicted in the movie failed to stop the intruder.
On a quiet night, when no responsibilities intrude on your personal time, there are few movies more entertaining to see again than the 1999 release of Entrapment, starring Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
He is a master thief. She is the […]

Thermopile detectors convert thermal potential differences into electric potential differences for contact and non-contact temperature sensing and presence sensing. They are cheap, interchangeable, have standard connectors, and can measure a wide range of temperatures. Our designs lend themselves easily to analog and digital systems.
Dexter Research pioneered the affordable infrared thermopile detector. Our thermopile detectors are […]

Dexter Research Center announces the availability of the ST120, a small thermopile detector that offers high output in a silicon-based chip. Developed with Dexter’s industry-leading internal optimization program, the ST120 is believed to outperform any competitor with same active area.
The ST120 Four Channel Silicon Thermopile
The new single-channel silicon-based thermopile provides lowest cost solutions in a […]

Dexter Research Center announces the availability of “the flat pack”. This surface mount package allows for a lower profile than standard TO-5 packaging, the new device is a single-channel silicon-based thermopile in a LCC package for surface mount assembly. The company believes it to be the world’s best surface mount thermopile.
The flat pack enables thermopile […]
