In this study, NDIR (Non-Dispersive Infrared) sensor technology in the field of biomedical engineering is examined in detail according to the principle of infrared light absorption. Firstly, the structure and working principle of NDIR sensors and the relationship between IR light and gas detection are explained, then analog and digital sensor types are compared. Concentration calculation methods based on Beer-Lambert's law are analyzed both theoretically and practically. The effects on the accuracy and reproducibility of these approaches are discussed in detail. Its use in environmental monitoring, capnography, building automation, industrial security and IoT systems is supported by examples, especially in application areas. The study discusses in depth both the evolution and development of NDIR sensors and their potential. It also sheds light on current trends and market projections for the future of sensor technologies. The findings demonstrate this and the long-term, precise, reliable monitoring that NDIR sensors offer in the biomedical field.
