  2. Fisheye lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisheye_lens

    A fisheye lens is an ultra wide-angle lens that produces strong visual distortion intended to create a wide panoramic or hemispherical image. [4][5]: 145 Fisheye lenses achieve extremely wide angles of view, well beyond any rectilinear lens. Instead of producing images with straight lines of perspective (rectilinear images), fisheye lenses use ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Curvilinear perspective - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_perspective

    Curvilinear barrel distortion Curvilinear pincushion distortion. Curvilinear perspective, also five-point perspective, is a graphical projection used to draw 3D objects on 2D surfaces, for which (straight) lines on the 3D object are projected to curves on the 2D surface that are typically not straight (hence the qualifier "curvilinear" [citation needed]).

  5. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    Perspective distortion. Transformation of an object and its surrounding area that differs from its normal focal length. Simulation showing how adjusting the angle of view of a camera, while varying the camera's distance and keeping the object in frame, results in vastly differing images. At narrow angles and long distances, light rays are ...

  6. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    v. t. e. In technical drawing and computer graphics, a multiview projection is a technique of illustration by which a standardized series of orthographic two-dimensional pictures are constructed to represent the form of a three-dimensional object. Up to six pictures of an object are produced (called primary views), with each projection plane ...

  7. Free-space optical communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-space_optical...

    At the top right corner is a monocular for assisting the alignment of the two heads. Free-space optical communication (FSO) is an optical communication technology that uses light propagating in free space to wirelessly transmit data for telecommunications or computer networking. "Free space" means air, outer space, vacuum, or something similar.

  8. Video management system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_management_system

    A video management system, also known as video management software plus a video management server, is a component of a security camera system that in general: Collects video from cameras and other sources. Records / stores that video to a storage device. Provides an interface to both view the live video, and access recorded video.

  9. Rectilinear lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear_lens

    [1]: 59 As of 2020, the Laowa 9mm f/5.6 lens is the world's widest rectilinear lens for full frame cameras. [2] The vast majority of video and still cameras use lenses that produce nearly rectilinear images. A popular alternative type of lens is a fisheye lens which produces a distinctly curvilinear, wide-angled result.
