Halogen are fast heat up elements, also brighter because of the light, these are in the same category as all other electric hobs really.
Induction is completely different all together.
Induction hob is a large electro magnet, that turns on and off 25k times a minute. This heats the pan (So long as the pan is magnetic, glass and aluminium will not work) by moving the molecules of say iron in steel pans 25k times a minute this is friction. they are more efficient as no heat is wasted heating the element or glass of the hob, the only heat wasted is what the pan puts into the glass its sat on, they are safer as you can turn them off and touch them within seconds rather than tens of minutes.
They are also faster than gas or electric elements, at heating up.

Plain aluminum vessel are not suitable in an induction cooker because aluminum does not have magnetic properties. However, if the bottom of aluminum cookware has a magnetic layer added to it, then you can use it. Induction cooking, which relies on an electromagnet to heat a vessel, requires that the cooking vessel have ferromagnetic materials like cast iron and stainless steel.
