    Pattern glare is a form of visual discomfort [1] that arises from viewing repetitively striped patterns, such as those of op art. Instead of the patterns appearing as ...

  3. Dazzler (weapon) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzler_(weapon)

    The GLARE RECOIL and GLARE HELIOS dazzlers utilize built-in safety mechanisms to prevent eye damage by pairing the dazzler with a rangefinder; the dazzler will self-modulate power output with respect to range to target so the closer the target, the lower the output and the farther the target, the greater the output.

  4. Actions per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actions_per_minute

    The term APM originates from StarCraft, and was popularised after the development of a large number of community tools, particularly BWChart, allowing observers of game matches to view player resources and "actions per minute", which was used as a metric in determining a player's skill.

  5. Lens flare - Wikipedia

    Lens flare on Borobudur stairs to enhance the sense of ascending. A lens flare is often deliberately used to invoke a sense of drama. A lens flare is also useful when added to an artificial or modified image composition because it adds a sense of realism, implying that the image is an un-edited original photograph of a "real life" scene.

  6. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

    For the example of glass (n S ≈ 1.5) in air (n 0 ≈ 1.0), this optimal refractive index is n 11.225. [20] [21] The reflection loss of each interface is approximately 1.0% (with a combined loss of 2.0%), and an overall transmission T 1S T 01 of approximately 98%. Therefore, an intermediate coating between the air and glass can halve the ...

    Examples of pixel geometry, showing various arrangements of pixels and subpixels, which must be considered for subpixel rendering.LCD displays consisting of red, green, and blue subpixels (bottom right is the most typical example) are best suited to subpixel rendering.

  8. Single-photon avalanche diode - Wikipedia

    Commercial single-photon avalanche diode module for optical photons. A single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD), also called Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode [1] (G-APD or GM-APD [2]) is a solid-state photodetector within the same family as photodiodes and avalanche photodiodes (APDs), while also being fundamentally linked with basic diode behaviours.

  9. Double-click - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-click

    A single click highlights the file's icon and another single click (on the filename, not the icon) makes the name of the file editable. A user who tries to execute this action may inadvertently open the file (a double-click) by clicking too quickly, while a user who tries to open the file may find it being renamed by clicking too slowly.
