Unlock the Invisible with the INFRARED Science Experiment Kit
Have you ever wondered what light is really made of—beyond what your eyes can see? Step into the fascinating world of near-infrared (NIR) light with the INFRARED Science Experiment Kit, the perfect hands-on tool for curious minds, young scientists, and educators alike. Designed for safety and simplicity, this innovative kit makes the invisible visible—and learning unforgettable.
But how do you “see” infrared light if it’s invisible to the human eye? That’s where the IR-SENSE Film comes in. This advanced, low-cost, and NIR-responsive film transforms a standard smartphone camera into a high tech infrared camera. If the light from an object or lamp has a strong NIR component, a red or pink color becomes visible in the photo, creating a vivid, real-time visual indicator of the healthy infrared light all around us.
At the heart of the science kit are two specially engineered, rechargeable light bulbs. The first emits only visible light—just like a standard household LED bulb. The second, however, emits both visible light and near-infrared (NIR) energy, allowing users to directly compare the two. Simply turn on each bulb in a dimly lit room, hold the IR-SENSE empowered smartphone in front of the light, and watch as it detects the NIR—demonstrating clearly which bulb emits infrared and which does not. Because both bulbs are powered by internal, child-safe batteries (no exposed wiring or high voltage), they’re ideal for classroom demonstrations or home experiments—even for younger learners.
This hands-on experience demystifies core scientific concepts such as the electromagnetic spectrum, light wavelengths, and optical energy radiation. Students can explore questions like: Why do some lights feel warmer than others? How do remote controls or night-vision goggles work? The INFRARED Kit transforms abstract physics into tangible discovery.
Whether you’re a teacher looking to add excitement to your STEM curriculum, a parent seeking educational screen-free activities, or a science enthusiast eager to explore light beyond the rainbow, this kit offers a safe, engaging, and illuminating experience. It aligns perfectly with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and encourages critical thinking through direct observation and comparison.
Scientists generally use a spectrometer to capture and display a full spectrum of light (visible + invisible UV&NIR), as shown in the absolute spectrum graph.
The INFRARED Science Experiment Kit isn’t just a toy—it’s a gateway to understanding the hidden forces that shape our biological and technological world. From astronomy to medical imaging and photobiomodulation therapy, infrared light is used to improve life and wellness everywhere. Start your journey into this invisible realm today, and see light in a whole new way.

KIT INCLUDES: Two rechargeable light bulbs with hooks and built-in switch for ON/OFF and brightness control. One IR-SENSE film for smart phones. Bulbs emit a neutral white light color and can be used as part of the IR Science Experiment Kit or for any other purpose. One bulb produces a full spectrum (with NIR) while the other produces visible-only light. Internal batteries can be recharged using any standard E26/E27 socket (AC85-265V). Box used for shipping may vary from one in photo.
