2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   A heat lamp is an incandescent light bulb that is used for the principal purpose of creating heat. The spectrum of black-body radiation emitted by the lamp is shifted to produce more infrared light. Many heat lamps include a red filter to minimize the amount of visible light emitted. Heat lamps often include an internal reflector.

3. Infrared sensing in snakes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_sensing_in_snakes

   The more advanced infrared sense of pit vipers allows these animals to strike prey accurately even in the absence of light, and detect warm objects from several meters away. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It was previously thought that the organs evolved primarily as prey detectors, but recent evidence suggests that it may also be used in thermoregulation and ...

4. Infrared lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_lamp

   Round bulbs, often tinted red to reduce visible light, provide infrared radiant heat suitable for warming of people or animals, but the power density available is low. The development of quartz halogen linear lamps allowed much higher power density up to 200 watts/inch of lamp (8 w/mm), useful for industrial heating, drying and processing ...

5. Insect thermoregulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insect_thermoregulation

   The pre-flight warm-up behavior of a moth. Insect thermoregulation is the process whereby insects maintain body temperatures within certain boundaries.Insects have traditionally been considered as poikilotherms (animals in which body temperature is variable and dependent on ambient temperature) as opposed to being homeothermic (animals that maintain a stable internal body temperature ...

   Use it for a little extra light and heat while dining outside, or — my choice — roasting marshmallows. It comes in stainless steel plus eight colors, including this new metallic bronze. $80 at ...

7. Infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared

   It was long known that fires emit invisible heat; in 1681 the pioneering experimenter Edme Mariotte showed that glass, though transparent to sunlight, obstructed radiant heat. [ 6 ] [ 7 ] In 1800 the astronomer Sir William Herschel discovered that infrared radiation is a type of invisible radiation in the spectrum lower in energy than red light ...
