Entrance pupil

Index Entrance pupil

In an optical system, the entrance pupil is the optical image of the physical aperture stop, as 'seen' through the front of the lens system. [1]

Angle of view

In photography, angle of view (AOV) describes the angular extent of a given scene that is imaged by a camera.

Aperture

In optics, an aperture is a hole or an opening through which light travels.

Camera

A camera is an optical instrument for recording or capturing images, which may be stored locally, transmitted to another location, or both.

Cardinal point (optics)

In Gaussian optics, the cardinal points consist of three pairs of points located on the optical axis of a rotationally symmetric, focal, optical system.

Cornea

The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and anterior chamber.

Diaphragm (optics)

In optics, a diaphragm is a thin opaque structure with an opening (aperture) at its center.

Exit pupil

In optics, the exit pupil is a virtual aperture in an optical system.

Eye

Eyes are organs of the visual system.

F-number

The f-number of an optical system (such as a camera lens) is the ratio of the system's focal length to the diameter of the entrance pupil.

Focal length

The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.

Image stitching

Image stitching or photo stitching is the process of combining multiple photographic images with overlapping fields of view to produce a segmented panorama or high-resolution image.

Magnification

Magnification is the process of enlarging the appearance, not physical size, of something.

Optics

Optics is the branch of physics which involves the behaviour and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it.

Panoramic photography

Panoramic photography is a technique of photography, using specialized equipment or software, that captures images with horizontally elongated fields of view.

Parallax

Parallax is a displacement or difference in the apparent position of an object viewed along two different lines of sight, and is measured by the angle or semi-angle of inclination between those two lines.

Pinhole camera

A pinhole camera is a simple camera without a lens but with a tiny aperture, a pinhole – effectively a light-proof box with a small hole in one side.

Pupil

The pupil is a hole located in the center of the iris of the eye that allows light to strike the retina.

New!!: Entrance pupil and Pupil · See more »

Pupil magnification

The pupil magnification of an optical system is the ratio of the diameter of the exit pupil to the diameter of the entrance pupil.

New!!: Entrance pupil and Pupil magnification · See more »

Telecentric lens

A telecentric lens is a compound lens that has its entrance or exit pupil at infinity; in the prior case, this produces an orthographic view of the subject.

Transmittance

Transmittance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in transmitting radiant energy.

Vignetting

In photography and optics, vignetting (vignette) is a reduction of an image's brightness or saturation toward the periphery compared to the image center.

Virtual image

In optics, a virtual image is an image formed when the outgoing rays from a point on an object always diverge.
