Infrared Emission

Infrared emission refers to the release of energy in the form of infrared radiation, which is a type of light that we can't see but can feel as heat. Every object, including our bodies, emits some infrared radiation based on its temperature. Hotter objects emit more of this radiation. Infrared emission is important in various fields, such as astronomy for studying the universe, in thermal imaging for detecting heat patterns, and in everyday technologies like remote controls and heat lamps. Essentially, it's a way for objects to radiate heat and energy into their surroundings.
