Can humans actually see without any aid infareed radiation'?

No, humans cannot see infrared radiation without aid. Our eyes are not sensitive to infrared light, which has longer wavelengths than visible light. Specialized cameras or goggles are needed to detect and convert infrared radiation into visible images for human eyes to see.


Can infrared radiation kill you?

Yes. At a high enough intensity any form of radiation can be deadly. All forms of electromagnetic radiation carry energy, which can heat objects. Intense enough infrared radiation can essentially broil you.


Can animals or humans see infrared radiation?

Humans can't see that. Some animals have a different range of radiations they can see. One interesting case is certain snakes, which have a special organ to sense heat radiation (i.e., infrared radiation). This helps them find their prey.


What can you use infrared radiation for?

When you sit near a fire you will feel the warmth of infrared radiation on your bare skin. Infrared radiation can be used to supply heat to a room. Although our eyes cannot see infrared there are electronic devices than can. Vehicles, animals and people give off infrared, even in the dark, and these devices can be used like ordinary video cameras to view scenes when our eyes are essentially useless to us.


What 3 types of waves do our eyes detect?

Our eyes detect three types of waves: visible light, which allows us to see colors and shapes; infrared radiation, which we sense as heat; and ultraviolet radiation, which is invisible to the naked eye but can cause damage to our eyes and skin with prolonged exposure.
