  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. 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 ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Image formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_formation

    The ratio of the height of the image to the height of the object is the magnification. The spatial extent of the image surface and the focal length of the lens determines the field of view of the lens. Image formation of mirror these have a center of curvature and its focal length of the mirror is half of the center of curvature.

  6. 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 ...

  7. 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).

  8. Lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens

    Virtual image formation using a positive lens as a magnifying glass. [30] In some cases, S 2 is negative, indicating that the image is formed on the opposite side of the lens from where those rays are being considered.

  9. Pinhole camera model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera_model

    A practical implementation of a pinhole camera implies that the image plane is located such that it intersects the X3 axis at coordinate -f where f > 0. A point R at the intersection of the optical axis and the image plane. This point is referred to as the principal point [2] or image center.
