Executive Summary Optical fibres are being increasingly used in the telecommunications industry. They are slowly replacing the conventional copper cables due their superior ‘data transmission’ properties. They transmit data via light pulses within glass or plastic strands. Fibre optics fit the material requirements for good data transmission since they are ability to transmit and preserve quality of signals‚ durable and cost-effective. Some of the current materials employed within the industry

Optical illusions are all around us(explain). The brain remembers what it has seen before‚ then when it sees something similar it takes shortcuts when looking at a new images. This causes the brain to make mistakes and creates optical illusions. An optical illusion is a misleading image that deceives the eye. Different people see optical illusions differently because of their previous experiences. Previous experiences help the brain interpret what it sees. If your previous experiences determine

Optical Storage Devices • An optical disk is a high-capacity storage medium. An optical drive uses reflected light to read data. • To store data‚ the disk’s metal surface is covered with tiny dents (pits) and flat spots (lands)‚ which cause light to be reflected differently. • When an optical drive shines light into a pit‚ the light cannot be reflected back. This represents a bit value of 0 (off). A land reflects light back to its source‚ Representing a bit value of 1 (on)

ASSIGNMENT 4 WEEK 1 - STORAGE DEVICES Describe the main working features of ONE of the following storage devices. Hard disk drive Optical storage Flash memory Include any relevant diagrams that help explain your answer. Optical Storage The optical storage device that most of us are familiar with is the compact disc (CD). A CD can store huge amounts of digital information (783 MB) on a very small surface that is incredibly inexpensive to manufacture. The design that makes this possible is

OCCUPATIONAL LENSES What is an Occupational Lens? An Occupational Lens (or Enhanced Reader) is a reading lens that has a Degression zone to incorporate the Intermediate prescription (and sometimes‚ depending on prescription‚ a good DV portion) Why dispense an Occupational Lens‚ instead of a Reading pair of glasses? With more and more people using Computers‚ Laptops and Smartphones‚ we demand more from the Intermediate zone than ever before. So by dispensing a pair of Reading glasses to a

INTRODUCTION Free-space optical communication (FSO) is an optical communication technology that uses light propagating in free space to transmit data for telecommunications orcomputer networking. "Free space" means air‚ outer space‚ vacuum‚ or something similar. This contrasts with using solids such as optical fiber cable or an optical transmission line. The technology is useful where the physical connections are impractical due to high costs or other considerations. Free-space optical communication (FSO)

nahas | 4/29/2011 | | Free space optical communication is the most growing communication because it is easy to install and has a high speed because the signal is transmitted in the air. So that will introduce the atmospheric affect in the optical wave propagation. Atmospheric turbulence causes fluctuations in both the intensity and the phase of the received signal. So we need to study the effect and the limitation if we introduce a free space optical communication system with dual wavelength

DESCRIPTION OPTICAL MICROSCOPE Introduction The optical microscope has been a standard tool in life science as well as material science for more than one and a half centuries now. The optical microscope widely use in the field of cell biology‚ microbiology‚ biotechnology‚ pharmacology‚ forensic and medical diagnosis especially when dealing with tissue fragments. It is a type of microscope which uses visible light and a system of lenses to magnify images of small samples. In other words‚ Optical microscope
