An illustration of some of the optical devices available for laboratory work in England in 1858. An optical instrument is a device that processes light waves (or photons), either to enhance an image for viewing or to analyze and determine their characteristic properties. Common examples include periscopes, microscopes, telescopes, and cameras ...
Eye-trackers measure rotations of the eye in one of several ways, but principally they fall into one of three categories: measurement of the movement of an object (normally, a special contact lens) attached to the eye; optical tracking without direct contact to the eye; measurement of electric potentials using electrodes placed around the eyes.
Optoelectronic devices are electrical-to-optical or optical-to-electrical transducers, or instruments that use such devices in their operation. [ 1 ] Electro-optics is often erroneously used as a synonym, but is a wider branch of physics that concerns all interactions between light and electric fields , whether or not they form part of an ...

A driving test generally consists of one or two parts: the practical test (sometimes called a road test in the United States), used to assess a person's driving ability under normal operating conditions, [1] and a theory test (written, oral or computerized) to confirm a person's knowledge of driving and relevant rules and laws.
The ERB is diminished, for example, when individuals are driving cognitively demanding vehicles, such as industrial vehicles, or when they are asked to multitask while driving. [6] One study has shown that when placed in a cognitively demanding condition, individuals shift their focus from the road alone to focus on other tasks such as shifting ...

Since the average value of cos 2 θ is 1/2, the transmission coefficient becomes I I 0 = 1 2 . {\displaystyle {\frac {I}{I_{0}}}={\frac {1}{2}}\,.} In practice, some light is lost in the polariser and the actual transmission of unpolarised light will be somewhat lower than this, around 38% for Polaroid-type polarisers but considerably higher ...
