Best Answer

Light doesn't detect anything, no matter what its wavelength is.

If you BUILD a detector that responds to infrared, then your detector will respond to heat.
It can be used to reveal the presence of stoves, people, fresh coffee, dogs, etc., even in the
dark where your eyes cannot detect them.
