Bilayer films, composed of a thin‐layer of pyroresistive submicrometer‐sized crystals on top of a polymeric thin film , can be used both as a direct‐contact thermometer and as passive infrared sensor. These materials are capable of detecting, radiation of a wide‐range of wavelengths very rapidly and reversibly, as well as recognizing distant objects with applications in robotics, biomedicine, and human health care.
