The radio waves and infrared light are fundamentally different in wavelengths, frequency and energies of light.
In the electromagnetic spectrum, the radio waves have a longer wavelength than the infrared light.
Infrared light only functions through a line of sight, whereas the radio waves can effectively be used from a long distance.
Radio waves are able to reach the earth’s surface whereas most infrared light does not reach the earth and is contained in the space.
Majority of things in the universe, including people, emit infrared light. Stars, the sun, black holes and neutron stars create magnetic fields, which creates radio waves.
A remote control uses infrared light to change the channel on the TV, while radio waves are used to receive TV shows.
