2. Infrared lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_lamp

   It responds only to the rapidly pulsing signal created by the transmitter, and filters out slowly changing infrared radiation from ambient light. Infrared communications are useful for indoor use in areas of high population density. IR does not penetrate walls and so does not interfere with other devices in adjoining rooms. Infrared is the most ...

3. Infrared photography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_photography

   Infrared light has a range of wavelengths, just like visible light has wavelengths that range from red light to violet. "Near infrared" light is closest in wavelength to visible light, ranging from approximately 700 to 5000 nm and "far infrared" is closer to the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum, ranging from approximately 25 to ...

4. Infrared cut-off filter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_cut-off_filter

   Infrared cut-off filters, sometimes called IR filters or heat-absorbing filters, are designed to reflect or block near-infrared wavelengths while passing visible light. They are often used in devices with bright incandescent light bulbs (such as slide and overhead projectors ) to prevent unwanted heating.

5. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

   A PIR motion detector used to control an outdoor, automatic light. A camera trap with PIR motion detector. An indoor light switch equipped with PIR-based occupancy sensor [1] A PIR-based motion detector is used to sense movement of people, animals, or other objects. They are commonly used in burglar alarms and automatically activated lighting ...

6. Infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared

   Infrared (IR; sometimes called infrared light) is electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with wavelengths longer than that of visible light but shorter than microwaves. The infrared spectral band begins with the waves that are just longer than those of red light (the longest waves in the visible spectrum ), so IR is invisible to the human eye.

7. Forward-looking infrared - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward-looking_infrared

   Forward-looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, typically used on military and civilian aircraft, use a thermographic camera that senses infrared radiation. [ 1 ] The sensors installed in forward-looking infrared cameras, as well as those of other thermal imaging cameras, use detection of infrared radiation, typically emitted from a heat source ...
