Yes, some of them do. Most common remote controls for home entertainment systems include an infrared (IR) light emitting diode (LED) that uses the IR to communicate from the remote control to the equipment. Your equipment can "see" the light from the remote control, but if you look into the "business end" of the device and actuate it, you can't see anything. Simple and easy.

Is light emitting diodes emit visible light when forward biased?
It depends on the particular LED. Some of them emit infrared light. But, yes, emission occurs when forward-biased.
Are colored Christmas tree leds the same as the leds used in grow lights?
No.
How does OLED work on TVs Is it is really possible to show images on a screen so thin.?
OLED stand for organic light emitting diode. Like conventional LEDs, each diode emits light. Put a red, green and blue LED together and they are able to create any color. Because the LEDs emit light, they do not require a separate back light component so the screen depth can be reduced significantly. LED screens have been used for many years in open air and arenas. The very compact form of organic LEDs offers opportunities to use LEDs in compact, domestic sized televisions. Because of the simpler construction, it is likely that LED television will become norm in just a few years from now.
What is the principle of light-emitting diode?
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It is a basic pn-junction diode, which emits light when activated. When a fitting voltage is applied to the leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form of photons. This effect is called electro luminescence, and the color of the light (corresponding to the energy of the photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the semiconductor. An LED is often small in area (less than 1 mm2) and integrated optical components may be used to shape its radiation pattern. Appearing as practical electronic components in 1962, the earliest LEDs emitted low-intensity infrared light. Infrared LEDs are still frequently used as transmitting elements in remote-control circuits, such as those in remote controls for a wide variety of consumer electronics. The first visible-light LEDs were also of low intensity, and limited to red. Modern LEDs are available across the visible, ultraviolet, and infra-red wavelengths, with very high brightness.
Can you sell infrared cookers in India?
is there any restriction by selling infrared cooker in india
How do infrared lamps work?
Infrared lamps are electrical devices that use infrared LEDs to emit infrared radiation everywhere. Many studies show that this warm infrared radiation plays an active role in providing health and well-being to people. It increases activity, stimulates cellular energy production and cell regeneration, and promotes relaxation in the body.
Why does using a tv remote control not burn anyone?
Because they don't get hot, or emit radiation like a microwave oven. TV remotes use infrared diodes to send the signal (volume up/down, channel up/down, etc.) to a receiver in the TV. Like the LEDs used in computers, toys and christmas lights, the infrared LEDs do not get hot.
What does a tv transmitter mast emit?
They emit infrared radiation
Do heat lamps give of infrared rays?
Normal LED lamps produce almost no infrared light. However, just like there are LEDs in various colors like red and green, there are also infrared LEDs.
Do led has radiation?
LEDs can also be designed to emit light in the infrared spectrum, but the radiation emitted is very slight and only has limited use, such as communication between electronic devices using infrared ports and signals. Since the diodes are so small, they cannot easily be used to generate large amounts of heat. Other LEDs fall in the visible light spectrum, with some nearing ultraviolet light.
What does the earths surface emit?
Infrared radiation.
Human e mit infrared radiation?
yes, humans emit infrared radiation
What light bulbs produce little infrared?
Essentially, any bulb will produce some infrared, which is most easily detected as heat. The lowest infrared emitter is GENERALLY the Light Emitting Diode or (LED), followed fairly closely by the Compact Fluorescent (or CFL). I say Generally, because an LED can be manufactured to emit any frequency, and there are infrared LEDs, but these are low power and most often used in remote controls.
How does a LED light works in a motion sensor detector?
Two pairs of Infrared LEDs are used as motion sensor detector. The first one is wired to emit LED and the second is wired to transmit a signal when it receives an infrared input. this infrared is reflected back to the receiving LED and then the signal is produced. This signal can be used to open sliding doors, turn on a light or set off an alarm.
What are all bodies emit called?
All objects and living things emit infrared radiation unless the object is not a black hole as well unless its temperature is not at the Absolute Zero ( I would call it an "infrared black hole") - such an object can only absorb infrared radiation.
Are infrared waves given off by plutonium?
Because plutonium is hot emit also infrared radiation.
How do infrared quartz heaters work?
The infrared quartz heaters have the infrared emitters and they emit infrared rays continuously to heat the heater in the instrument. The heat is generated and infrared emission stops.
