  2. Virtual image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_image

    The magnification of the virtual image formed by the plane mirror is 1. Top: The formation of a virtual image using a diverging lens. Bottom: The formation of a virtual image using a convex mirror. In both diagrams, f is the focal point, O is the object, and I is the virtual image, shown in grey. Solid blue lines indicate (real) light rays and ...

  3. Virtually imaged phased array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtually_Imaged_Phased_Array

    This is the fundamental difference from an Echelle grating, where a similar phased array is formed in the real space. The virtual images of a light source in the VIPA are automatically aligned exactly at a constant interval, which is critical for optical interference. This is an advantage of the VIPA over an Echelle grating.

  4. Real image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_image

    A real image occurs at points where rays actually converge, whereas a virtual image occurs at points that rays appear to be diverging from. Real images can be produced by concave mirrors and converging lenses, only if the object is placed further away from the mirror/lens than the focal point, and this real image is inverted. As the object ...

  5. Plane mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_mirror

    A virtual image is a copy of an object formed at the location from which the light rays appear to come. Actually, the image formed in the mirror is a perverted image , there is a misconception among people about having confused with perverted and laterally-inverted image. If a person is reflected in a plane mirror, the image of his right hand ...

  6. Mirror image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_image

    In geometry, the mirror image of an object or two-dimensional figure is the virtual image formed by reflection in a plane mirror; it is of the same size as the original object, yet different, unless the object or figure has reflection symmetry (also known as a P-symmetry).

  7. Optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optics

    Optics is the branch of physics that studies the behaviour and properties of light, ... the closer the virtual image is to the lens. As with mirrors, upright images ...

  8. Curved mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_mirror

    A virtual image in a Christmas bauble. The image on a convex mirror is always virtual (rays haven't actually passed through the image; their extensions do, like in a regular mirror), diminished (smaller), and upright (not inverted). As the object gets closer to the mirror, the image gets larger, until approximately the size of the object, when ...

  9. VR photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VR_Photography

    VR photography (after virtual-reality photography) is the interactive viewing of panoramic photographs, generally encompassing a 360-degree circle or a spherical view. The results is known as VR photograph (or VR photo ), 360-degree photo , [ 1 ] photo sphere , [ 2 ] or spherical photo , as well as interactive panorama or immersive panorama .
