  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. 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.

  4. Audiovisual education - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiovisual_education

    Visual instruction makes abstract ideas more concrete for the learners. This is to provide a basis for schools to understand the important roles in encouraging and supporting the use of audiovisual resources. In addition, studies have shown a significant difference between the use and non-use of audiovisual material in teaching and learning. [6]

  5. Instructional simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instructional_simulation

    Stanford On-line, InterLabs, Classroom 2000 and the system "Virtual University" (VU) are examples of this VLE. 4th generation VLE: These are the environments of the future, and represent new learning paradigms, at the center of which are the user and the ‘global resources,’ as opposed to the teacher and the ‘local resources.’

  6. Visual processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_processing

    The visual system is organized hierarchically, with anatomical areas that have specialized functions in visual processing. Low-level visual processing is concerned with determining different types of contrast among images projected onto the retina whereas high-level visual processing refers to the cognitive processes that integrate information from a variety of sources into the visual ...

  7. Binasal occlusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binasal_occlusion

    According to a 2017 paper, [3] another hypothesis of the effectiveness of binasal occlusion in the treatment of Post Trauma Vision Syndrome, is the tape provides a stationary reference point that the brain can use to help decode the incoming visual information. The term Visual Motion Sensitivity is coined in this paper.

  8. Ambient occlusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_occlusion

    This approach is an example of a "gathering" or "inside-out" approach, whereas other algorithms (such as depth-map ambient occlusion) employ "scattering" or "outside-in" techniques. In addition to the ambient occlusion value, a "bent normal" vector n ^ b {\displaystyle {\hat {n}}_{b}} is often generated, which points in the average direction of ...

  9. Visual literacy in education - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_literacy_in_education

    Teaching visual literacy in the classroom means many things from film, dance, and mime through the use of diagrams, maps and graphs to children's picture books. Visual texts can be found in books, the internet, environmental signage, TV, tablet devices and touch-screen machines like ATMs.
