2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation.

3. Catalytic heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_heater

   Catalytic space heaters generate infrared heat to raise the temperature in a given area. [2] In addition to the larger catalytic heaters there are also small hand warmer or pocket heaters that use a catalyst combustion unit. Current units use a glass fiber substrate coated with platinum. Cheaper units may use other catalysts that do not work as ...

   Inset shows false color infrared thermograph of a roof on a sunny day; the white surfaces (colored blue in the thermograph) have been coated with an elastomer to reduce solar loading and have a surface temperature of approximately 60 °F (16 °C); the gray surfaces (colored red/white in the thermogram) are a standard asphalt (bitumen) coating and have a surface temperature of approximately 160 ...

5. Active thermography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_thermography

   [2] The IRNDT method is based on an excitation of a tested material by an external source, which brings some energy to the material. Halogen lamps, flash-lamps, ultrasonic horn or other sources can be used as the excitation source for the IRNDT. The excitation causes a tested material thermal response, which is measured by an infrared camera ...

6. Infrared sauna - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sauna

   An infrared sauna uses infrared heaters to emit infrared light experienced as radiant heat which is absorbed by the surface of the skin. Infrared saunas are popular in alternative therapies , where they are claimed to help with a number of medical issues including autism , cancer , and COVID-19 , but these claims are entirely pseudoscientific .

7. Infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared

   Infrared tracking, also known as infrared homing, refers to a passive missile guidance system, which uses the emission from a target of electromagnetic radiation in the infrared part of the spectrum to track it. Missiles that use infrared seeking are often referred to as "heat-seekers" since infrared (IR) is just below the visible spectrum of ...
