Optical devices

Humankind has gone through many ages including the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age, the Middle ages, Machine age, and the period we are in today. Many valid arguments for what period we are in today including the Big Data Age, Social Age, or even Information Age. However, I think a valid argument can also be made for the Glass Age. Throughout this course we have covered many topics while using a wide variety of equipment and technology all made possible through the advancements of glass. From window

To illustrate this idea that perceptual experience may be different than what is real, consider the optical illusion. Artists such as Charles Allan Gilbert and M.C. Escher were masters of the craft of illusion in art. For example, in 1892 Charles Allan Gilbert drew a picture that he called “All is Vanity”. This piece of artwork is an ambiguous optical illusion using a skull, which has been the object of many pieces of this type, where we see more than one thing in the picture

Just like most other types of technology, cabling and communication are advancing faster than ever before. One of the most promising advances in this area is fiber optic cabling. Fiber optic refers to the technology and the medium associated with the transfer of information as light impulses along a plastic or glass fiber. With the demand for faster communication and network speeds fiber optic is quickly becoming the leading choice in most developed countries. Fiber optic wire is capable of carrying

Light enters one end of the fiber from a light bulb, laser, or some other source, and travels essentially unimpeded all the way to the length of the fiber where it is intercepted by a photosensitive detector such as an electronic device or even the human eye. The distance of travel varies according to the use to anywhere from just a few inches to over one-hundred and fifty miles. Fiber optic cable can transmit large amounts of information over one-hundred and fifty miles almost

A. Melting Point and percent yield of Dimethyl Fumarate Dimethyl Fumarate was not successfully created during the course of this particular experiment, likely because of a failure of the bromine to mix with the other components of the test tubes. It was observed that the bromine had formed a separate fraction at the top of the rest of the test tube contents, and because of this the necessary reaction could not occur in substantial amounts for a precipitate of dimethyl fumarate to form. The amount

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

(LED). Strands of fiber are comprised of three major components: the core, cladding, and buffer coating. The contained by part of the fiber is called the core. A fiber’s core is the pathway where the light passes through. Encompassing the core is optical matter called cladding. Cladding recurrently reflects light pulses stimulating the pulses to pass through easily by way of the fiber core. The buffer coating functions as a covering for the cladding and the core by shielding it from external elements

post-proudction process and the visual effects are not involved in on set during production (http://filmescape.com/whats-the-difference-between-special-effects-visual-effects). Special effects can be seen in terms of two categories: optical and mechanical effects. Optical effects have to do with the camera and the manipulation of the camera as well as the lighting to make the scene look different (http://filmescape.com/whats-the-difference-between-special-effects-visual-effects). This process could

LAN for A LAN network (Local Area Network) is an establishment created when clients or devices such as computers and phones etc. with the right networking specifications allowing them to be connected with each other using a common connecion such as Ethernet or wireless. This establishment allows the sharing of resources from the device through the network and to the desired destination such as another device e.g. Mobile phone, pc, tablet etc. all locally within the network by Ethernet etc. In this
