Infrared Wireless System
Secure Wireless Communication - Infrared Wireless Microphone Systems†
Infrared microphone is widely used as a convenient wireless communication tool, because of its preventive features against eavesdrop and radio interference. This content describes "Infrared Wireless Microphone System" in easy-to-understand way.
What's infrared?
Infrared is the light invisible to the eye and harmless to the body. There are invisible light rays, besides seven visible light spectrum, such as violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Infrared light is one of invisible lights having wavelengths(*1)longer than that of red ray, and therefore called "infra-red"ray. The light with shorter wavelength than that of visible violet is called ultraviolet ray. While ultraviolet light has ill effect to human body, e.g. sunburn, infrared light does not.
What're advantages of infrared wireless microphone?
Light does not penetrate walls, therefore the infrared microphone has three features as below
Unlike radio waves, infrared ray does not penetrte walls. Information transmitted through infrared ray will be highly protected against outdoor listening by the third party using a device operating on radio wave.
Secure communication is assured in urban area without being disturbed by jamming of radio wave communication.
Designed for stable voice transmission, thanks to two infrared emitters carefully located on a microphone body shape that helps prevent the emitters from being accidentally covered by a hand when holding the microphone.
