Boe-Bot IR Question

In working with myBoe-Bot, I noticed that the manual mentions the various types of IR's. I was wondering if the Far IR is readily available to consumers, as I would like to implement one in my Boe Bot project.

    More info please. I think far ir means the band and not the distance.

    In the Boe-Bot manual they it states the different colors of IR and their nm factor. Far IR is from 2000 to 10,000.

    You would also need a receiver that would work in that range.
