  2. Ring flash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flash

    A ring flash is a circular light that is often operated with a camera lens in the center to take photographs. Unlike point light sources , a ring flash can illuminate a subject with minimal shadows by closely and evenly surrounding the optical axis of the camera lens.

  3. Flicker (light) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(light)

    In visual perception, flicker is a human-visible change in luminance of an illuminated surface or light source which can be due to fluctuations of the light source itself, or due to external causes such as due to rapid fluctuations in the voltage of the power supply (power-line flicker) or incompatibility with an external dimmer.

  4. Ring (company) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_(company)

    In November 2013, Ring was founded as Doorbot by Jamie Siminoff. Doorbot was crowdfunded via Christie Street, and raised US$ 364,000, more than the $250,000 requested. [1] [4] [5] Siminoff's team envisioned the product's concept as an "alarm system literally turned inside out" in comparison to other security systems, describing it as a "pre-crime" system. [6]

  5. Flicker fusion threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fusion_threshold

    The flicker fusion threshold, also known as critical flicker frequency or flicker fusion rate, is the frequency at which a flickering light appears steady to the average human observer. It is a concept studied in vision science , more specifically in the psychophysics of visual perception .

  6. Backscatter (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backscatter_(photography)

    In photography, backscatter (also called near-camera reflection [1]) is an optical phenomenon resulting in typically circular artifacts on an image, due to the camera's flash being reflected from unfocused motes of dust, water droplets, or other particles in the air or water. It is especially common with modern compact and ultra-compact digital ...

    A 230-volt LED filament lamp, with an E27 base. The filaments are visible as the eight yellow vertical lines. An assortment of LED lamps commercially available in 2010: floodlight fixtures (left), reading light (center), household lamps (center right and bottom), and low-power accent light (right) applications An 80W Chips on board (COB) LED module from an industrial light luminaire, thermally ...

  8. Light leak - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_leak

    A light leak is a hole or gap in the body of a camera, or other optical instrument, where light is able to "leak" into the normally light-tight chamber, exposing the film or sensor with extra light. This light is diffused, although parts within the camera may cast shadows or reflect it in a particular way. For most purposes this is considered a ...

  9. Light-emitting diode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode

    In diffused lens LEDs, this circuit is visible as a small black dot. Most flashing LEDs emit light of one color, but more sophisticated devices can flash between multiple colors and even fade through a color sequence using RGB color mixing. Flashing SMD LEDs in the 0805 and other size formats have been available since early 2019. Flickering
