  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism correction is measured in prism dioptres. A prescription that specifies prism correction will also specify the "base". The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex. Light will be bent towards the base and the image will be shifted towards the apex. In an eyeglass prescription, the base is typically specified as up, down, in, or out, but left and right are also ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_prism

    Dispersive prism. In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow ). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1] This is a result of the prism material's index of refraction ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromostereopsis

    Chromostereopsis is a visual illusion whereby the impression of depth is conveyed in two-dimensional color images, usually of red–blue or red–green colors, but can also be perceived with red–grey or blue–grey images. [1] [2] Such illusions have been reported for over a century and have generally been attributed to some form of chromatic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon_physics

    Cartoon physics. Cartoon physics or animation physics are terms for a jocular system of laws of physics (and biology) that supersedes the normal laws, used in animation for humorous effect. Many of the most famous American animated films, particularly those from Warner Bros. and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, indirectly developed a relatively ...

  6. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    A familiar dispersive prism. An optical prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that are designed to refract light. At least one surface must be angled — elements with two parallel surfaces are not prisms. The most familiar type of optical prism is the triangular prism, which has a triangular base and rectangular ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_rodents...

    This list of fictional rodents in animation is subsidiary to the list of fictional animals and the list of fictional rodents, covering all rodents including beavers, chipmunks, gophers, mice, squirrels, rats and porcupines, as well as extinct or prehistoric species (such as Ceratogaulus ), which have appeared in animation .

  8. Dispersion (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Dispersion (optics) In a dispersive prism, material dispersion (a wavelength -dependent refractive index) causes different colors to refract at different angles, splitting white light into a spectrum.

    I ordered a pair of, er, Pair glasses with black frames and a navy-blue top, because I'm boring. My only regret is that I didn't choose something fun like The Retro Batman. But the glasses ...
