The 35mm frame lines mean the viewfinder is meant to be used with 35mm lenses (or focal lengths equivalent to those on APS-C ...

Machine-learning models identify relationships in a data set (called the training data set) and use this training to perform operations on data that the model has not encountered before. This could ...

A geometrical optical illusion is a type of puzzle in which lines, patterns, and figures mislead the brain about their actual perception. These optical illusions do not always seem correct as they ...

Optical illusions often trick our brains and eyes. This new viral image is also an illusion like this. In the picture, you can see a lush tree with green leaves and branches, but the challenge is that ...

Bandwidth multipliers The simplest optical signal is a coherent laser beam that has been modulated prior to transmission. For ...

Everyone who ever took a photo knows the problem: if you want a detailed image, you need a lot of light. In microscopy, however, too much light is often harmful to the sample—for example, when imaging ...
