    High-index lenses are made from a substance that refracts more light than traditional lenses. This makes the lenses thinner and lighter. The index of a lens is its ability to bend light efficiently. The higher the index, the less lens material is required to bend the same amount of light. So if you have a higher index, you can have a thinner lens. How do High-Index Lenses Differ from Regular Lenses? High index lenses are made of a material that is capable of bending light to a stronger degree than

    Paragraph In my science fair project I tested whether gender matter in the way people see optical illusions. I tested this because it sounded fascinating, and also interesting. Optical Illusions now in day, it’s used in many ways. They can be used as a way to trick people, to learn about sensory perception, and to learn about how the brain perceives lighter values and dark values. Research Summary Optical illusions fool our brains by taking shortcuts, because the brain can’t take everything at

    Introduction An optical fiber (or optical fiber) is a flexible, transparent fiber made by drawing glass (silica) or plastic to a breadth somewhat thicker than that of a human hair. Optical fibers are utilized regularly as a way to transmit light between the two closures of the fiber and find wide utilization in fiber-optic communication, where they allow transmission over longer separations and at higher bandwidths (information rates) than wire links. Fibers are utilized rather than metal wires

    Illusions can be early illusions, twentieth century illusions, twenty-first century illusions, and new illusions. Optical illusions started out in ancient Greece. John R. Opel made one of the earliest optical illusion in 1854. Many optical illusions have been found in cave paintings. An optical illusion is not appraised as an invention, but instead the result of a man mimicking the geometric form seen in nature. First, our eyes skim, then our brains tend to jump to conclusions. The impact on

    1.) Visual Search - In this activity I participated in a classic psychological experiment that uses visual search tasks to explore fundamental process of visual perception and attention. In general I learned that selective attention filters enable us to make more automatic decisions about the stimuli around us, including which items to pay attention to during a visual search. Also, since your brain is always active and sees visual sights and sensory information, your mind copes by automatically screening

    Li-fi removes these limitations. 1.) Capacity: Insufficient Radio spectrum cannot cope up with the demands of the everyday data usage. But optical light spectrum has a huge advantage in terms of the range. Higher data transmission rates of around 10Gbps. 2.) Efficiency: There are about 1.5 billion base stations globally. A huge amount of energy is consumed by these base stations, especially

    orange peels almost 100% in the (R)-(+)-limonene form. Other citrus fruits like lemons, grapefruits, limes, and tangerines contain the compound as well. The purity of the oil extracted from the oranges can be determined by physical properties such as optical rotation and refractive index. In this experiment, limonene will be isolated by steam distillation. Normally, big molecules such as limonene

    The OTDR is a device that measures distances to a reflection surface by measuring the time it takes for a lightwave pulse to reflect from the surface. Reflection surfaces include the ends of fiber cables, breaks in the fiber, splice locations, and connector locations. The ability to provide these measurements simplifies the fault location procedure for fiber systems. The OTDR measures the scattered and reflected light returning from a pulse of transmitted light. Pulses of light are generated from

    Literature review starting with the research topic of the modeling and analysis of resistance spot welding on galvanized steel sheet used in car body manufacturing. In the process analysis of resistance spot welding on galvanized steel used in vehicle body manufacturing, the quality of spot weld is checked from the tensile strength and shear strength properties of the spot weld. The four important parameters in this analysis are: a. Weld current b. Weld time c. Pressure d. Hold time These four
