  2. Streak camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streak_camera

    Working principle of a streak camera. A streak camera is an instrument for measuring the variation in a pulse of light's intensity with time. They are used to measure the pulse duration of some ultrafast laser systems and for applications such as time-resolved spectroscopy and LIDAR.

  3. Femto-photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femto-photography

    In their publications, Raskar's team claims to be able to capture exposures so short that light only traverses 0.6 mm (corresponding to 2 picoseconds, or 2 × 10 −12 seconds) during the exposure period, [6] a figure that is in agreement with the nominal resolution of the Hamamatsu streak camera model C5680, [7] [8] on which their experimental ...

  4. Triangulation (computer vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangulation_(computer...

    The ideal case of epipolar geometry. A 3D point x is projected onto two camera images through lines (green) which intersect with each camera's focal point, O 1 and O 2. The resulting image points are y 1 and y 2. The green lines intersect at x. In practice, the image points y 1 and y 2 cannot be measured with arbitrary accuracy.

  5. Intermittent mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_mechanism

    Working principle of a Maltese cross or Geneva drive Animation of a rotating shutter. The film is transported one frame when the shutter is blocking illumination of the film. An intermittent mechanism or intermittent movement is a device or movement which regularly advances an object, web, or plastic film and then holds it in place. This ...

  6. Zen of Python - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zen_of_Python

    The Zen of Python is a collection of 19 "guiding principles" for writing computer programs that influence the design of the Python programming language. [1] Python code that aligns with these principles is often referred to as "Pythonic". [2] Software engineer Tim Peters wrote this set of principles and posted it on the Python mailing list in ...

  7. Schlieren photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren_photography

    As a result, one can place a camera after the knife edge such that the image of the object will exhibit intensity variations due to the deflections of the rays. The result is a set of lighter and darker patches corresponding to positive and negative fluid density gradients in the direction normal to the knife edge.

  8. Perspective-n-Point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective-n-Point

    Perspective-n-Point [1] is the problem of estimating the pose of a calibrated camera given a set of n 3D points in the world and their corresponding 2D projections in the image. The camera pose consists of 6 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) which are made up of the rotation (roll, pitch, and yaw) and 3D translation of the camera with respect to the world.

  9. Video tracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_tracking

    Video tracking is the process of locating a moving object (or multiple objects) over time using a camera. It has a variety of uses, some of which are: human-computer interaction, security and surveillance, video communication and compression, augmented reality, traffic control, medical imaging [1] and video editing.
