An infrared thermal camera, also known as a thermal imager or infrared camera, is a device that detects and measures infrared radiation emitted by objects in order to create a visual representation of ...

How athletes rebound from constant wear and tear on their bodies has become nearly as important as how they train. Warm baths and cold tubs are old staples, but far infrared radiation (FIR) saunas are ...

D’oh: simulation of infrared radiation from a heat source being blocked by an object shaped like the head of Homer Simpson (left). The image on the right shows how the proposed cloaking device would ...

With the rapid development of nanophotonics, spectrally selective infrared stealth technology has achieved great success through the design of metamaterials. However, as the background environment is ...

You can cover yourself from head to toe in fatigues or dark clothing, but it’s nearly impossible to hide from a thermal camera that can see the invisible infrared radiation your body emits. Or is it?

A study participant puts in a contact lens. Researchers developed lenses with nanoparticles that convert infrared wavelengths into visible light that humans can perceive. Yuqian Ma, Yunuo Chen, Hang ...

An international team of researchers, led by Drexel University, has found that a thin coating of MXene — a type of two-dimensional nanomaterial discovered and studied at Drexel for more than a decade ...

Infrared light was discovered 2 as a result of the problem it caused William Herschel while he was making astronomical observations of the Sun — it created a disturbing heating sensation in his eye ...

The Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation gave a $1.5 million grant to UC Berkeley astrophysicist Carl Pennypacker and Tim Ball, president of Fireball Information Technologies, LLC, funding their efforts ...
