Solution
Infrared radiations can be detected by the thermopile.
A thermopile is an electronic device that converts thermal energy into electrical energy.
Thermopiles are designed to measure temperature from a distance by detecting an object's infrared (IR) energy. The higher the temperature, the more IR energy is emitted.
Hence, Infrared radiation can be detected by a thermopile.
