Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today the upcoming launch of a new MelDIR-brand 80×60-pixel thermal-diode infrared sensor (MIR8060C1) with a 100°×73° field of view, more than double that of the company’s existing thermal-diode infrared sensors, to accurately and efficiently identify people and objects. The expanded field of view will reduce the number of sensors required to effectively monitor large areas, contributing to the safety, security and convenience of solutions for monitoring elderly care facilities and building air-conditioning systems, counting people, and measuring body temperatures. The launch is scheduled for January 6, 2025.

The new MelDIR thermal-diode infrared sensor suppresses incident-light components that blur thermal images and uses a newly designed lens for an expanded field of view. Wide-area monitoring is possible with a single unit, which reduces the cost of monitoring systems, while still providing high-precision 80×60-pixel detection for the accurate identification of people and objects, monitoring behavior, etc. As with existing MelDIR products, support tools are provided to help device manufacturers integrate the sensor into their products, contributing to faster product development.

Product Features
1) More than double the detection range of existing products
- Suppressing incident-light components that blur thermal images and using a newly designed lens enabled the field of view to be expanded to 100°×73°, more than double the 78°×53° range of existing products.
