  2. Illusion transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illusion_transmitter

    An illusion transmitter uses two parabolic mirrors to transmit 3-D illusions of an object by use of a camera trained on the first mirror, which then sends video signals to a projector aimed at the second mirror.

  3. Parabolic reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_reflector

    Parabolic reflectors are popular for use in creating optical illusions. These consist of two opposing parabolic mirrors, with an opening in the center of the top mirror. When an object is placed on the bottom mirror, the mirrors create a real image, which is a virtually identical copy of the original that appears in the opening. The quality of ...

  4. Specular holography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specular_holography

    A specular hologram contains many such curved surfaces, all embedded in a host surface. ... An everyday example is the parabolic Fresnel mirror used in many solar ...

    In practice, several more mirrors may be used to direct the beams in the required directions. Normally, transmission holograms [3]: Section 4.3.1 can only be reconstructed using a laser or a quasi-monochromatic source, but a particular type of transmission hologram, known as a rainbow hologram, can be viewed with white light.

  6. Holography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography

    The hologram keeps the information on the amplitude and phase of the field. Several holograms may keep information about the same distribution of light, emitted to various directions. The numerical analysis of such holograms allows one to emulate large numerical aperture, which, in turn, enables enhancement of the resolution of optical microscopy.

  7. Reflecting telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflecting_telescope

    A convex secondary mirror is placed just to the side of the light entering the telescope, and positioned afocally so as to send parallel light on to the tertiary. The concave tertiary mirror is positioned exactly twice as far to the side of the entering beam as was the convex secondary, and its own radius of curvature distant from the secondary.

  8. Holographic optical element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_optical_element

    Holographic optical element (HOE) is an optical component (mirror, lens, directional diffuser, etc.) that produces holographic images using principles of diffraction.HOE is most commonly used in transparent displays, 3D imaging, and certain scanning technologies.

  9. Foucault knife-edge test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foucault_knife-edge_test

    From top: Parabolic mirror showing Foucault shadow patterns made by knife edge inside radius of curvature R (red X), at R and outside R. Foucault testing is commonly used by amateur telescope makers for figuring primary mirrors in reflecting telescopes. [5] [6] The mirror to be tested is placed vertically in a stand. The Foucault tester is set ...
