Quick question about IR emitters. What level of output(mW/sr) do I need to be able to transmit over a distance of 10m? How about 30m?
Also, how does ambient light in a room/sunlight effect IR? Would full sunlight "kill" the signal over a distance?
Would putting the emitter in a tube and using a lens make a difference?
What about wavelength? Is high better?
Thank you for the help. I always find this forum a great help.
