  2. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    The linear motion can be of two types: uniform linear motion, with constant velocity (zero acceleration); and non-uniform linear motion, with variable velocity (non-zero acceleration). The motion of a particle (a point-like object) along a line can be described by its position x {\displaystyle x} , which varies with t {\displaystyle t} (time).

  3. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    [Also known as rectilinear motion] Reciprocal motion; Brownian motion – the random movement of very small particles; Circular motion; Rotatory motion – a motion about a fixed point. (e.g. Ferris wheel). Curvilinear motion – It is defined as the motion along a curved path that may be planar or in three dimensions.

  4. Curvilinear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_motion

    The motion of an object moving in a curved path is called curvilinear motion. [1] Example: A stone thrown into the air at an angle . Curvilinear motion describes the motion of a moving particles that conforms to a known or fixed curve.

  5. Fisheye lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisheye_lens

    With appropriate software, the curvilinear images produced by a fisheye lens can be remapped to a conventional rectilinear projection. Although this entails some loss of detail at the edges of the frame, the technique can produce an image with a field of view greater than that of a conventional rectilinear lens.

  6. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    The mood effect of perspective distortion achieved by rectilinear extreme wide-angle lenses is that the resulting image looks grotesque and unsettling, while not looking as unrealistic as curvilinear fisheye lenses which display barrel distortion. The effect is especially noticeable the closer the camera is to the subject, as its amount ...

  8. Rectilinear propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear_propagation

    Rectilinear propagation was discovered by Pierre de Fermat. [1] Rectilinear propagation is only an approximation. [citation needed] The rectilinear approximation is only valid for short distances, in reality light is a wave and have a tendency to spread out over time. The distances for which the approximation is valid depends on the wavelength ...
