IR SENSOR

      IR sensor terrible yes, after a fashion It is rough and very out of focus, but IR that affects the filament will change its temperature and therefore it is the radiation of the black body and also its resistance.
     The mass of the filament is huge for a sensor and is subject to the ambient temperature since the bulbs were not completely evacuated and the ambient temperature is an important contribution to the temperature of the filament in most cases that somehow would have to filter. basically, it ends up measuring only the ambient temperature of the filament. Then it is not a good sensor. The change is non-linear resistance to temperature and increases significantly when the filament is heated. This effect is necessary for the design to create the correct power. There are much better and more accurate ways to detect IR. I found infrared sensors of the type commonly used in the security light of home motion sensors online for a couple of dollars. The PIN diodes that are used for many IR sensor applications are surplus available. 
    The silicone diode joints are very sensitive to IR, therefore, the silicon solar cells, which makes it another raw IR sensor if it is properly biased. Larger cells respond very slowly. Most digital cameras are sensitive and require an IR filter to focus properly on visible light due to better sensitivity to the IR frequencies of silicon. FYI, you can see IR remote control signals using many digital cameras, so not all IR is filtered on these devices. Some IR LEDs are a little sensitive to IR, probably more sensitive if they are reverse polarized and then you see a change in leakage current (there is information online.) 
    Often, the junk PC mouse will have an optional chopper with an IR sensor. Sometimes, older CD ROM drives use IR sensors to see the position of the tray. If you want it sensitive to the signs of rapid change, it must be small. Phototransistors are also available for almost nothing. The semiconductor IR sensors are literally everywhere, therefore, use anything else, but not the bulb.

Energy used for specific jobs

    One thing that is not discussed here is the energy used for specific jobs only power.  For example, refrigerators turn on and off. Therefore, a refrigerator that runs almost full time can be cooled with the same energy but at lower power than a cycle in which each cycle consumes more energy. Energy = Power for time. Secondly, all kinds of devices now use motors in inverters or other electronic devices that control the frequency or voltage, giving the motors only the speed and, therefore, the power needed to perform a specific job. On-demand water pumps come to mind and offer only the pressure and flow rate required and nothing more. Needless to say, the power required is only what is needed for that pressure and volume. So far, less energy is wasted. Apparently, the team that is discussing works according to this principle. But, whether DC is operated from rectified AC or inverted DC to Poly Phase AC, the specific design used is unknown.

Transfer technique produces wearable gallium nitride gas sensors

------------------------------------------------ Transfer technique produces wearable gallium nitride gas sensors A transfer technique based on thin sacrificial layers of boron nitride could allow high-performance gallium nitride gas sensors to be grown on sapphire substrates and then transferred to metallic or flexible polymer support materials. The technique could facilitate the production of low-cost wearable, mobile and disposable sensing devices for a wide range of environmental applications. Transferring the gallium nitride sensors to metallic foils and flexible polymers doubles their sensitivity to nitrogen dioxide gas, and boosts response time by a factor of six. The simple production steps, based on metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE), could also lower the cost of producing the sensors and other optoelectronic devices. Sensors produced with the new process can detect ammonia at parts-per-billion levels and differentiate between nitrogen-contain
