  2. Pinhole occluder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_occluder

    A pinhole occluder is an opaque disk with one or more small holes through it, used by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists to test visual acuity. The occluder is a simple way to focus light, as in a pinhole camera, temporarily removing the effects of refractive errors such as myopia. Because light passes only through the center of the ...

  3. Pinhole glasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_glasses

    Pinhole glasses, also known as stenopeic glasses, are eyeglasses with a series of pinhole-sized perforations filling an opaque sheet of plastic in place of each lens. Similar to the workings of a pinhole camera , each perforation allows only a very narrow beam of light to enter the eye which reduces the size of the circle of confusion on the ...

  4. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

    An occluder is placed over the eye that is not being tested (e.g.: over the left eye, to test the right eye's vision). A pinhole occluder is then placed before the patient's eye, and their vision is then tested again (each eye separately) to determine if the patient's poor visual acuity is a result of optical irregularities, or pathological issues.

  5. Comparison shopping website - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_shopping_website

    A comparison shopping website, sometimes called a price comparison website, price analysis tool, comparison shopping agent, shopbot, aggregator or comparison shopping engine, is a vertical search engine that shoppers use to filter and compare products based on price, features, reviews and other criteria.

  6. Pinhole (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Wide-field micrograph of a damaged 80 μm pinhole Natural pinholes formed by tree leaves – Solar eclipse of August 21, 2017 in Washington state. A pinhole is a small circular hole, as could be made with the point of a pin. In optics, pinholes with diameter between a few micrometers and a hundred micrometers are used as apertures in optical ...

  7. Comparison of file comparison tools - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file...

    The difference is an exact number of quarters of an hour up to 95 (same minutes modulo 15 and seconds) if the file was transported across zones; there is also a one-hour difference within a single zone caused by the transition between standard time and daylight saving time (DST). Some, but not all, file comparison and synchronisation software ...

  8. Pinhole camera model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_camera_model

    The geometry of a pinhole camera. Note: the x 1 x 2 x 3 coordinate system in the figure is left-handed, that is the direction of the OZ axis is in reverse to the system the reader may be used to. The geometry related to the mapping of a pinhole camera is illustrated in the figure. The figure contains the following basic objects:

  9. Camera obscura - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_obscura

    A tram photographed with a pinhole objective attached to the lens mount of a digital camera. Camera obscura principle pinhole objectives machined out of aluminium are commercially available. [87] As the luminosity of the image is very weak in the phenomenon, long exposure times or high sensitivity must be used in digital photography.
