2. Infrared thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_thermometer

   An infrared thermometer is a thermometer which infers temperature from a portion of the thermal radiation sometimes called black-body radiation emitted by the object being measured. They are sometimes called laser thermometers as a laser is used to help aim the thermometer, or non-contact thermometers or temperature guns , to describe the ...

5. Thermometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermometer

   Blackbody radiation An infrared thermometer is a kind of pyrometer . All objects above absolute zero emit blackbody radiation for which the spectra is directly proportional to the temperature. This property is the basis for a pyrometer or infrared thermometer and thermography. It has the advantage of remote temperature sensing; it does not ...

   Thermal Infrared Image by Mars Odyssey's thermal emission imaging system of Mars. Thermal remote sensing is a branch of remote sensing in the thermal infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. [1] Thermal radiation from ground objects is measured using a thermal band in satellite sensors. [2]

7. Infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared

   Infrared radiation can be used as a deliberate heating source. For example, it is used in infrared saunas to heat the occupants. It may also be used in other heating applications, such as to remove ice from the wings of aircraft (de-icing). [39] Infrared radiation is used in cooking, known as broiling or grilling. One energy advantage is that ...
