  2. Schlieren photography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren_photography

    Focusing schlieren systems can use compact optics with a large background illumination pattern, which is particularly easy to produce with a projection system. For systems with large demagnification, the illumination pattern needs to be around twice larger than the field of view to allow defocusing of the background pattern.

  3. Schlieren imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren_imaging

    Schlieren imaging system setup: linear lens-based configuration. The optical setup of a schlieren imaging system may comprise the following main sections: [citation needed] Parallel beam, focusing element, stop (sharp edge) and a camera. The parallel beam may be achieved by a point-like light source (a laser focused into a pinhole is sometimes ...

  4. Schlieren - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schlieren

    Schlieren (/ ˈ ʃ l ɪər ən / SHLEER-ən; German: [ˈʃliːʁn̩] ⓘ, German for 'streaks') are optical inhomogeneities in transparent media that are not necessarily visible to the human eye. Schlieren physics developed out of the need to produce high-quality lenses devoid of such inhomogeneities.

  5. Depth of field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

    In optics and photography, hyperfocal distance is a distance from a lens beyond which all objects can be brought into an "acceptable" focus. As the hyperfocal distance is the focus distance giving the maximum depth of field, it is the most desirable distance to set the focus of a fixed-focus camera . [ 41 ]

    The schlieren system used was a single-pass system designed by Aimed Research. The video demonstrates the typical transitional (intermediate) ballistic sequence of a handgun. Video was created on June 03, 2013. Free file sharing must have accompanied credit to author, Nathan Boor of Aimed Research, on the internet page it appears.

  7. Shadowgraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadowgraph

    It is related to, but simpler than, the schlieren and schlieren photography methods that perform a similar function. Shadowgraph is a type of flow visualisation. In principle, a difference in temperature, a different gas, or a shock wave in the transparent air cannot be seen by the human eye or cameras.

  8. Hyperfocal distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperfocal_distance

    In optics and photography, hyperfocal distance is a distance from a lens beyond which all objects can be brought into an "acceptable" focus. As the hyperfocal distance is the focus distance giving the maximum depth of field , it is the most desirable distance to set the focus of a fixed-focus camera . [ 1 ]

  9. Optical spectrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_spectrometer

    Comparison of different diffraction based spectrometers: Reflection optics, refraction optics, fiber/integrated optics [citation needed] Spectroscopes are often used in astronomy and some branches of chemistry. Early spectroscopes were simply prisms with graduations marking wavelengths of light.
