Astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to peer into the early universe and uncover the building blocks of galaxies during their formative years. The CRISTAL ...

Earlier, and perhaps more basic, LED masks usually provide just one primary colour treatment mode, such as red or blue, ...

Night-vision goggles can let you see infrared light in green, but these contacts let you see it in green, blue, and red wavelengths.

Scientists have developed revolutionary contact lenses that grant wearers the ability to see infrared light—a feat humans naturally cannot achieve. This breakthrough, detailed in the journal ...

Near-infrared light, with wavelengths between 700 and 2,500 nanometers, excels at penetrating biological tissue with minimal radiation damage.

With short, medium and long wavelength cones, the range of cones allows for a range of vision which incorporates the visible light spectrum. This includes colours between red and blue ...

If we could see longer wavelengths — just outside the visible spectrum into the near-infrared — we'd be able to see humans and other warm-blooded animals "glow" faintly as they emit infrared ...

The team tested their lenses on humans by asking subjects to detect flashing signals, akin to Morse code, in the infrared, and to identify the direction of incoming infrared light. The subjects ...

An additional tweak to the contact lenses allows users to differentiate between different spectra of infrared light by engineering the nanoparticles to color-code different infrared wavelengths ...

May 22, 2025 Infrared contact lenses enable vision in the dark and through closed eyelids Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both ...

The contact lens technology uses nanoparticles that absorb infrared light and convert it into wavelengths that are visible to mammalian eyes (e.g., electromagnetic radiation in the 400-700 nm range).

Infrared is also combined with LED light in some light therapy masks, like Riki Loves Riki Baby Face. Always follow the manufacturer’s suggested usage. Powerful rays aren’t always a good thing.
