Abstract

The invention concerns an infrared connection device using infrared rays for transmitting data from various electrical appliances to a remote data processing unit where they are handled. The infrared rays pass through a series of infrared wave guide tubes where they can be subjected to modifications of direction, or power amplifications, through optical or electronic means so to reach the data processing unit undamaged, even in the presence of a long and discontinuous trajectory. The absence of electric wire, or optical fiber in the infrared circuit facilitates mounting and maintenance of the various appliances integrated in the system developed by means of connectors similar to those used in the protective cladding of electrical circuits, or in hydraulics. Said data transfer mode by infrared radiation also enables novel uses, in particular through the use of an infrared electronic barcode capable of being remotely modulated specially designed for moving vehicles.
