  2. Polarizing filter (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Polarizing_filter_(photography)

    Circular polarizer/linear analyzer [1] filtering unpolarized light and then circularly polarizing the result. A polarizing filter or polarising filter (see spelling differences) is a filter that is often placed in front of a camera lens in photography in order to darken skies, manage reflections, or suppress glare from the surface of lakes or the sea.

  3. Solarization (photography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solarization_(photography)

    In photography, solarization is the effect of tone reversal observed in cases of extreme overexposure of the photographic film in the camera. Most likely, the effect was first observed in scenery photographs including the sun. The sun, instead of being the whitest spot in the image, turned black or grey.

  4. Polarized 3D system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarized_3D_system

    A polarized 3D system uses polarization glasses to create the illusion of three-dimensional images by restricting the light that reaches each eye (an example of stereoscopy). To present stereoscopic images and films, two images are projected superimposed onto the same screen or display through different polarizing filters. The viewer wears low ...

  5. Polarizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizer

    Polarizers find applications in photography and LCD technology. In photography, a polarizing filter can be used to filter out reflections. The common types of polarizers are linear polarizers and circular polarizers. Polarizers can also be made for other types of electromagnetic waves besides visible light, such as radio waves, microwaves, and ...

  7. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    A polar molecule has a net dipole as a result of the opposing charges (i.e. having partial positive and partial negative charges) from polar bonds arranged asymmetrically. Water (H 2 O) is an example of a polar molecule since it has a slight positive charge on one side and a slight negative charge on the other. The dipoles do not cancel out ...

  8. Cell polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_polarity

    Furthermore, cell polarity is important during many types of asymmetric cell division to set up functional asymmetries between daughter cells. Many of the key molecular players implicated in cell polarity are well conserved. For example, in metazoan cells, the PAR-3/PAR-6/aPKC complex plays a fundamental role in cell polarity. While the ...

  9. Science of photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_of_photography

    The science of photography is the use of chemistry and physics in all aspects of photography. This applies to the camera, its lenses, physical operation of the camera, electronic camera internals, and the process of developing film in order to take and develop pictures properly.
