The image to the right illustrates how rays are emitted from the heater and absorbed by non-reflective surfaces (worker and boxes).

Infrared heaters are also an efficient method of heating airplane hangars or warehouses where bay doors are opened frequently. The people feel the warmth even when doors are open.
