  2. Imaging radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imaging_radar

    SARs produce a two-dimensional (2-D) image. One dimension in the image is called range and is a measure of the "line-of-sight" distance from the radar to the object. Range is determined by measuring the time from transmission of a pulse to receiving the echo from a target. Also, range resolution is determined by the transmitted pulse width.

  3. Optics and vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optics_and_vision

    The human eye is an organ which reacts to light for several purposes. As a conscious sense organ, the eye allows vision. Rod and cone cells in the retina allow conscious light perception and vision including color differentiation and the perception of depth. The human eye can distinguish about 10 million colors. [3]

  4. Range imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_imaging

    Range imaging is the name for a collection of techniques that are used to produce a 2D image showing the distance to points in a scene from a specific point, normally associated with some type of sensor device. The resulting range image has pixel values that correspond to the distance. If the sensor that is used to produce the range image is ...

  5. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    This may represent a single-vision lens prescription to improve near work, or the reading portion of a bifocal lens. OD is an abbreviation for oculus dexter, Latin for right eye from the patient's point of view. Oculus means eye. OS is an abbreviation for oculus sinister, Latin for left eye from the patient's point of view.

  6. High Resolution Wide Swath SAR imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Resolution_Wide_Swath...

    In order to optimize performance and control the range of ambiguities, the PRI must be larger than the time that it takes to collect returns from the entire illuminated swath. However, on the other hand, to avoid huge azimuth ambiguity levels, a large PRI implies the adoption of a small Doppler bandwidth and constrains the achievable azimuth ...

    This glossary of geography terms is a list of definitions of terms and concepts used in geography and related fields, including Earth science, oceanography, cartography, and human geography, as well as those describing spatial dimension, topographical features, natural resources, and the collection, analysis, and visualization of geographic ...

  8. Synthetic-aperture radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic-aperture_radar

    The image of the pole's top will overlay that of some terrain point which is on the same slant range arc but at a shorter horizontal range ("ground-range"). Images of scene surfaces which faced both the illumination and the apparent eyepoint will have geometries that resemble those of an optical scene viewed from that eyepoint.

  9. Field of view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view

    If the analogy of the eye's retina working as a sensor is drawn upon, the corresponding concept in human (and much of animal vision) is the visual field. [2] It is defined as "the number of degrees of visual angle during stable fixation of the eyes". [3] Note that eye movements are excluded in the visual field's definition.
