  2. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The strength of the prism is increased until the streak of the light passes through the centre of the prism, as the strength of the prism indicates the amount of deviation present. The Maddox rod is a handheld instrument composed of red parallel plano convex cylinder lens , which refracts light rays so that a point source of light is seen as a ...

  3. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

  4. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    The Micro Four Thirds system cameras and lenses perform automatic distortion correction using correction parameters that are stored in each lens's firmware, and are applied automatically by the camera and raw converter software. The optics of most of these lenses feature substantially more distortion than their counterparts in systems that do ...

  5. Flat-field correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat-field_correction

    This variation is called vignetting, and can be corrected by selectively brightening the perimeter of the image. Flat-field correction ( FFC) is a digital imaging technique to mitigate the image detector pixel-to-pixel sensitivity and distortions in the optical path. It is a standard calibration procedure in everything from personal digital ...

  6. Macro photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macro_photography

    Macro photograph of a common yellow dung fly ( Scathophaga stercoraria) made using a lens at its maximum 1:1 reproduction ratio, and an 18×24mm image sensor, the on-screen display of the photograph results in a greater than life-size image. Headshot of a dragonfly taken with a 100 mm macro lens coupled with a 50 mm lens in reverse at the end.

  8. Tilt–shift photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilt–shift_photography

    Canon currently offers five lenses with tilt and shift functions: the TS-E 17 mm f / 4, the TS-E 24 mm f / 3.5L II, the TS-E 50mm f/2.8L MACRO, the TS-E 90 mm f / 2.8L MACRO, and the TS-E 135 mm f/4L MACRO. The lenses are supplied with the tilt and shift movements at right angles to each other; they can be modified so that the movements operate ...

  9. Horror fusionis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horror_fusionis

    Ophthalmology. In ophthalmology, horror fusionis is a condition in which the eyes have an unsteady deviation, with the extraocular muscles performing spasm-like movements that continuously shift the eyes away from the position in which they would be directed to the same point in space, giving rise to diplopia. Even when the double vision images ...

  10. Hans-Joachim Haase (optician) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans-Joachim_Haase_(optician)

    Hans-Joachim Haase (1915 – December 20, 2001) was a German clockmaker, optician and inventor, who became known for an apparatus for testing binocular vision and for the MKH method, an alternative method intended to improve binocular vision using corrective lenses. This method, which is controversial, has mainly found application in German ...

  11. Optical proximity correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_proximity_correction

    Optical proximity correction ( OPC) is a photolithography enhancement technique commonly used to compensate for image errors due to diffraction or process effects. The need for OPC is seen mainly in the making of semiconductor devices and is due to the limitations of light to maintain the edge placement integrity of the original design, after ...
