Far infrared waves are thermal. In other words, we experience this type of infrared radiation every day in the form of heat! The heat that we feel from sunlight, a fire, a radiator or a warm sidewalk is infrared. ... Shorter, near infrared waves are not hot at all - in fact you cannot even feel them.

Infrared waves are commonly referred to has heat rays. Heat is in fact infrared radiation. Hold your hand next to a hot stove. Do you feel the heat radiating off of the stove and traveling towards your hand? If our eyes could see infrared radiation, what would it look like?

This is the infrared lie detector headband that aims to tell on fibbers using infrared light. ... Bunce's model is to emit near-infrared light through the skull into the brain using a special headband designed just for the purpose. The aim is to measure brain activity by monitoring how much light is reflected back.
