- Deflicking
unreferenced date March 2010 In video processing , deflicking is a filtering operation applied to brightness flicker in video to improve visual quality. The flicker effect can be seen when camera framerate and lighting frequency are not adjusted or in video digitized old film. The filter aims to improve the appearance of movies. The main idea is to smooth image brightness between series of the same scene frames. The deflicking filter is usually used in video camera for normalizing picture , used for postprocessing of captured video, and for restoration of video from old films.

- Lightcast
orphan date November 2009 A lightcast is a functional analysis and mapping of the illumination produced by a light source . It is used to map the physical characteristics of light emission for use in functional systems. A lightcast includes the entire zone of illumination while a raycast measures lighting of a single point in space near the light source. A lightcast is typically measured using all components of a combined lighting system, including the illumination source and any reflectors, lenses, filters, and diffuser s, and the measurement may include average brightness across a flat two dimensional surface as well as brightness across a curved of spherical surface. Color spectrum may be included, as well as moving and changing effects over time such flickering from a candle . Category Lighting tool stub ... more details

- Gain (projection screens)
Gain is a property of a projection screen , defined by how much brightness is visible from the screen s centre when the viewer is looking at that point on axis to the centre. Gain is controlled by diffusion of the screen, and governs the degree which light from the projector is scattered. Further Meaning A gain of 1.0 means the amount of light that is projected on the screen returns to the viewer at the same brightness none is absorbed and all is re radiated with perfect uniformity from all viewing angles. If one was to isolate certain rays striking the screen, he she would see the rays diffuse to form a perfect hemisphere shape. A block of magnesium carbonate MgCO3 or a matte white screen will result in a gain of 1.0. Gain is measured from the vantage point where the screen is at its brightest, which is directly in front and perpendicular to the screen. Technically the measurement of gain at this point is known as Peak Gain at Zero Degrees Viewing Axis. If you move to the side and view the screen at an angle the brightness of the projected image drops. The angle at which the gain reading drops to 50 of the peak value is known as the Half Gain Viewing Angle. A person viewing the screen from this angle will see an image half as bright as the person seated at the center position. Category Display technology ... more details

- Purkinje images
Purkinje images are Reflection physics reflection s of objects from structure of the human eye eye . They are also known as Purkinje reflexes and as Purkinje Sanson images. There are at least four Purkinje images that are visible on looking at an eye. The first Purkinje image P1 is the reflection from the outer surface of the cornea . The second Purkinje image P2 is the reflection from the inner surface of the cornea. The third Purkinje image P3 is the reflection from the outer anterior surface of the lens anatomy lens . The fourth Purkinje image P4 is the reflection from the inner posterior surface of the lens. Unlike the others, P4 is an inverted image. Purkinje Sanson images are named after Czech people Czech anatomist Jan Evangelista Purkyn 1787 1869 and after French people French physician Louis Joseph Sanson 1790 1841 . The third and fourth Purkinje images can be visible from within the eye itself. Light reflected away from the surfaces of the lens can in turn reflect back into the eye from the rear surface of the cornea. These images are, therefore, entoptic phenomenon entoptic phenomena . The first and fourth Purkinje images are used by some eye tracker s, devices to measure the position of an eye. Brightness of Purkinje Images The brightness of the Purkinje images can be determined using Fresnel s equation where the math Intensity Brightness n n 2 n n 2 math Purkinje image I is the brightest of the four then PII, PIII and PIV III and IV have about the same brightness . The Purkinje images can be used to assess the curvatures and separations of the surfaces in the eye.
