infrared

Infrared. A similar device called Bluetooth. Infrared is not ment for long distance connectivity, say through mobiles. The opposition has to be within touching distance. Infrared is a device, allowing you to connect (as i said, say through mobiles) to each device to swap and take out files of any sort, from either a computer, mobile, or any other portable device with infrared.
I used infrared connectivity to swap ringtones with my mate.
I used infrared to sawp picture files through my computer.

Infrared Igniter

A device that uses infrared radiation—heat, essentially—to initiate reactions through thermal excitation rather than electrical sparks or high-energy photons. Infrared igniters are the sophisticated cousins of the humble match: they deliver precisely controlled thermal energy to exactly where it's needed, igniting fuels or materials without the complexity of lasers or plasmas. They're used in industrial furnaces, gas turbines, and any application where you need reliable, repeatable ignition without the electromagnetic interference of spark systems. In practice, an infrared igniter is a very fancy, very expensive heating element that glows hot enough to light things on fire. It's technology that's been around since humans discovered fire, just with better temperature control.
*Example: "The gas turbine used infrared igniters because they were simple, reliable, and didn't create radio interference that would confuse the sensitive instruments. They were essentially high-tech glow plugs, doing the same job as the element in your toaster but at 2000 degrees and with much more expensive paperwork. They worked perfectly, which meant no one ever thought about them."*
