  2. Aliasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliasing

    This aliasing is visible in images such as posters with lenticular printing: if they have low angular resolution, then as one moves past them, say from left-to-right, the 2D image does not initially change (so it appears to move left), then as one moves to the next angular image, the image suddenly changes (so it jumps right) – and the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fixing_non-free...

    There are basically two type of pictures (images, files, pics, etc.) that are used here on Wikipedia: Free images; Non-free images; A free image is an image that can be freely used anywhere on Wikipedia. A free image may be either public domain, or released under a free license, such as CC-BY-SA. Free images can be used in any article where ...

  4. Binocular disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_disparity

    The disparity of features between two stereo images are usually computed as a shift to the left of an image feature when viewed in the right image. [3] For example, a single point that appears at the x coordinate t (measured in pixels ) in the left image may be present at the x coordinate t − 3 in the right image.

  5. Field of view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view

    Angular field of view is typically specified in degrees, while linear field of view is a ratio of lengths. For example, binoculars with a 5.8 degree (angular) field of view might be advertised as having a (linear) field of view of 102 mm per meter. As long as the FOV is less than about 10 degrees or so, the following approximation formulas ...

  6. Visual angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_angle

    The observers in experiment carried out by Murray and colleagues viewed a flat picture with two discs that subtended the same visual angle and formed retinal images of the same size , but the perceived angular size ′ of one was about 17% larger than for the other, due to differences in the background patterns for the disks. It was shown that ...

  7. Angular resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_resolution

    Angular resolution describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution.

  8. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distortion_(optics)

    In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image.It is a form of optical aberration that may be distinguished from other aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma, chromatic aberration, field curvature, and astigmatism in a sense that these impact the image sharpness without changing an ...

  9. Angular diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_diameter

    Thus, the angular diameter of Earth's orbit around the Sun as viewed from a distance of 1 pc is 2″, as 1 AU is the mean radius of Earth's orbit. The angular diameter of the Sun, from a distance of one light-year, is 0.03″, and that of Earth 0.0003″. The angular diameter 0.03″ of the Sun given above is approximately the same as that of a ...
