چکیده

A light beam hitting the retina produces an excitatory process; however, around the edge of the light beam, sensory cells are inhibited and lose their sensitivity. This combination of stimulation and inhibition produces a discrepancy between the luminance pattern presented to the eye and the brightness pattern that is observed. The black and white Mach bands are the best known distortions of this type. It is this interaction that can produce a line that is physically not present in the stimulus, and is different from the usual lines we see.

Marine Animals Chaetognatha as Bio-indicators of Geophysical Activity

A study was done on the morphology of marine planktonic animals, Chaetognatha (arrow worms), taken during sea expeditions from the regions without the influence of geophysical activity, from shallow-water volcanic bays and deep-water geophysically active regions. It was discovered that among the chaetognaths from geophysically active regions there was a large number of animals (up to 95%) with ...

A Magnifying Glass Approach to Augmented Reality Systems

This paper proposes a novel way to realize augmented reality (AR) systems. Unlike previous AR systems, which use head-mounted or head-up displays, our approach employs a palmtop-sized video see-through device to present computer augmented view of the real world. This conguration, which w e call the magnifying glass approach, has several advantages over traditional head-up or head-mounted congur...
