  2. Real image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_image

    The distance is not the same as from the object to the lenses. Real images may also be inspected by a second lens or lens system. This is the mechanism used by telescopes, binoculars and light microscopes. The objective lens gathers the light from the object and projects a real image within the structure of the optical instrument.

  3. Hollow-Face illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow-Face_illusion

    While a convex face will appear to look in a single direction, and the gaze of a flat face, such as the Lord Kitchener Wants You poster, can appear to track a moving viewer, a hollow face can appear to move its eyes faster than the viewer: looking forward when the viewer is directly ahead, but looking at an extreme angle when the viewer is only ...

  4. Accommodation reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accommodation_reflex

    Light from a single point of a distant object and light from a single point of a near object being brought to a focus. The accommodation reflex (or accommodation-convergence reflex) is a reflex action of the eye, in response to focusing on a near object, then looking at a distant object (and vice versa), comprising coordinated changes in vergence, lens shape (accommodation) and pupil size.

  5. List of convexity topics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_convexity_topics

    Convex lens - a lens in which one or two sides is curved or bowed outwards. Light passing through the lens is converged (or focused) to a spot behind the lens. Convex optimization - a subfield of optimization, studies the problem of minimizing convex functions over convex sets. The convexity property can make optimization in some sense "easier ...

  6. Visual system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system

    The visual system is the physiological basis of visual perception (the ability to detect and process light).The system detects, transduces and interprets information concerning light within the visible range to construct an image and build a mental model of the surrounding environment.

  7. Lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens

    A watch with a plano-convex lens over the date indicator. A single convex lens mounted in a frame with a handle or stand is a magnifying glass. Lenses are used as prosthetics for the correction of refractive errors such as myopia, hypermetropia, presbyopia, and astigmatism. (See corrective lens, contact lens, eyeglasses, intraocular lens.)

  8. Polarized 3D system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarized_3D_system

    In the case of RealD 3D a circularly polarizing liquid crystal filter which can switch polarity 144 times per second [3] is placed in front of the projector lens. Only one projector is needed, as the left and right eye images are displayed alternately.
