I came across an interesting phenomenon related to infrared light (IR) while I was making my previous video and thought I could share it with you. I was recording the video and wanted to stop, so I took my camera remote control and pressed the "Stop" button. I noticed blinking on the camera screen, which turned out to be infrared light. I checked all other remotes I had at home and all cameras I could put my hands on - it worked in all cases.

If you understand this phenomenon and can explain it, please leave a comment below.

I used my smartphone on a tripod to record this video. If you're curious how I mounted it on a tripod, go to my previous video: youtube.com/watch?v=TVGzS46wAm8
