infrareds
Invisible heat radiation
Infrareds is the plural of infrared, referring to multiple types or instances of infrared radiation, equipment, or technology.
Infrared describes electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible red light, used in thermal imaging, remote controls, and night vision: The military uses infrareds for surveillance.
The plural typically appears in technical contexts discussing different infrared wavelengths or devices.
