  2. Upside down goggles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upside_down_goggles

    Upside down goggles can be used to demonstrate human adaptation to inverted vision, and as a method of preventing motion sickness. [2] Hubert Dolezal recommended using upside down goggles for "nausea adaptation" for space travel. [3] They can also be used to train spatial abilities and possibly cognitive functions.

  3. Dark adaptor goggles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_adaptor_goggles

    Dark adaptor goggles are goggles made with red-tinted plastic lenses. Dark adaptor goggles were invented by Wilhelm Trendelenburg in 1916. [1] The concept is based on the work by Antoine Béclère on dark adaptation of the eye, where it is noted that fluoroscopy relies on the use of the retinal rods of the eye.

  4. Pseudoscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudoscope

    Basically, pseudoscopic vision is three-dimensional vision in reverse. For example, in aerial photography, swimming pools appear to look like buildings and buildings appear to look like swimming pools. In red and green plotters like the Kelsh and Multiplex this is achieved by reversing the lenses on the 3D glasses. The images will be reverse order.

    Stratton wore these glasses over his right eye and covered the left with a patch during the day, and slept blindfolded at night. Initial movement was clumsy, but adjusting to the new environment took only a few days. [59] Stratton tried variations of the experiment over the next few years. First he wore the glasses for eight days, back at Berkeley.

  6. Night-vision device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night-vision_device

    Panoramic night vision goggles (PNVG) increase FoV by increasing the number of sensor tubes. This solution adds size, weight, power requirements, and complexity. [69] An example is GPNVG-18 (Ground Peripheral Night Vision Goggle). [70] These goggles, and the aviation AN/AVS-10 PNVG from which they were derived, offer a 97° FoV. [68] Examples ...

  8. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image.It is a form of optical aberration that may be distinguished from other aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma, chromatic aberration, field curvature, and astigmatism in a sense that these impact the image sharpness without changing an ...

  9. Micropsia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropsia

    Micropsia is a condition affecting human visual perception in which objects are perceived to be smaller than they actually are. Micropsia can be caused by optical factors (such as wearing glasses), by distortion of images in the eye (such as optically, via swelling of the cornea or from changes in the shape of the retina such as from retinal edema, macular degeneration, or central serous ...
