Therefore he no longer thought of radiation from an object as continuous. He said it consisted of a series of "packets" of energy.

When the beam strikes an object, the infrared beam is interrupted. Thus, the light beam returns to the receiver with an angle after the reflection, then the receiver sends a high output signal.
