  3. Light switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_switch

    A toggle light switch Internal components of a toggle switch. The toggle mechanism provides "snap-action" through the use of an "over-center" geometry. The design was patented in 1916 by William J. Newton and Morris Goldberg. [2] The switch actuator does not control the contacts directly, but through an intermediate arrangement of springs and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Back-illuminated_sensor

    Comparison of simplified back-illuminated and front-illuminated pixel cross-sections. A back-illuminated (BI) sensor, also known as back-side illumination (BSI) sensor, is a type of digital image sensor that uses a novel arrangement of the imaging elements to increase the amount of light captured and thereby improve low-light performance.

  8. Mercury switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_switch

    A mercury switch is an electrical switch that opens and closes a circuit when a small amount of the liquid metal mercury connects metal electrodes to close the circuit. There are several different basic designs (tilt, displacement, radial, etc.) but they all share the common design strength of non-eroding switch contacts.

  9. Backlight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backlight

    A backlight is a form of illumination used in liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) that provides illumination from the back or side of a display panel. LCDs do not produce light by themselves, so they need illumination ( ambient light or a special light source) to produce a visible image.
