The real world extends far beyond what we can see with our eyes. Did you know that we are all constantly emitting light? Animals can see or sense types of light that are invisible to us. At our event, you'll discover this fascinating "invisible" light - infrared light - and learn how it differs from visible light.
You'll also explore how scientists and engineers harness the power of infrared light for meaningful applications, from face-scanning technology used to unlock mobile phones to environmental monitoring that supports Net-Zero initiatives and protects our planet.
Join us and dive into the wonders of infrared technology through a series of interactive activities and demonstrations, as well as insights into cutting-edge research. Help us brainstorm innovative ways to integrate this technology into our daily lives to create safer, cleaner, and more sustainable communities!
