2. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

   Adjustable focus eyeglasses are eyeglasses with an adjustable focal length. They compensate for refractive errors (such as presbyopia ) by providing variable focusing, allowing users to adjust them for desired distance or prescription, or both.

3. Dichroic prism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichroic_prism

   A trichroic prism assembly Dichroic prism. A dichroic prism is a prism that splits light into two beams of differing wavelengths (colour). [1] A trichroic prism assembly combines two dichroic prisms to split an image into 3 colours, typically as red, green and blue of the RGB colour model.

4. Dichroic glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichroic_glass

   A pendant made from modern dichroic glass. Dichroic glass is glass which can display multiple different colors depending on lighting conditions.. One dichroic material is a modern composite non-translucent glass that is produced by stacking layers of metal oxides which give the glass shifting colors depending on the angle of view, causing an array of colors to be displayed as an example of ...

5. Prism spectrometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_spectrometer

   A prism spectrometer is an optical spectrometer which uses a dispersive prism as its dispersive element. The prism refracts light into its different colors ( wavelengths ). The dispersion occurs because the angle of refraction is dependent on the refractive index of the prism's material, which in turn is slightly dependent on the wavelength of ...

6. Prism lighting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_lighting

   Older glass elements were cast, and might be cut and polished. Prism tiles were often made of single prisms joined with zinc, lead, or electroglazed copper strips (rather like the methods used to join traditional European stained glass). [1] Sidewalk prisms were cast in one piece as single or multiple-prism lenses, and inserted into load ...

7. Fresnel lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lens

   First-order rotating catadioptric Fresnel lens, dated 1870, displayed at the Musée national de la Marine, Paris.In this case the dioptric prisms (inside the bronze rings) and catadioptric prisms (outside) are arranged to concentrate the light from the central lamp into four revolving beams, seen by sailors as four flashes per revolution.
