HEATING SYSTEM FOR HEATING A LIVING BEING
First Claim
1. A heating system for heating a living being, the heating system comprising:
- an infrared laser system for illuminating the living being with infrared laser light, thereby heating the living being, wherein the illuminating the living being with the infrared laser light can be confined to a location of the living by a collimation of the infrared laser light.

Abstract
The invention relates to a heating system for heating a living being, for instance, a person (2) within a vehicle (1) being preferentially a hybrid car or an electric car. The heating system comprises an infrared laser system (5, 6) for illuminating the living being with infrared laser light, thereby heating the living being. Thus, heating radiation is used, which has a high collimation and which can be focused relatively easily. The heating can therefore be confined to a certain region, in which the living being is located. The heating can even be confined to the living being or to parts of the living being only. This more focused heating allows for a reduction of the energy consumption.
