Cameras are everywhere! There are probably 2 or even 3 cameras in your pocket right now. But how do they work? How can they take some of the most amazing pictures ever?

@pratulvenkatesh 5 лет назад

12:15 While I agree the spectrum of colors we see is partially influenced by the light emitted by our star, visible light isn't "visible" because it's the only thing available. Rather visible light is the em wave of the right wavelength capable of interacting with most of the matter at the molecular scale. For e.g we cant see something by bouncing radiowaves off of it as it just passes through unless it is a few metres thick. Quite a beautiful coincidence don't you think how most of the light we receive from our star happens to be in the visible spectrum.

@pratulvenkatesh 5 лет назад

I happen to watch this documentary recently on how animals see and it's honestly so fascinating. Houseflies have 4 types of color receptors 2 of which like in the UV range :o Did you know mantis shrimp have SIXTEEN types of photoreceptors! That way they don't have to calculate what color they are looking at and can detect the color directly. They can even detect other characteristics of light and apply them such as polarization. You'd think it'd be only to detect the environment better but they use this varying polarized light to send different signals It's so amazing how the colors we see is an incredibly human only perception, other creatures may be seeing the same light but can perceive completely different color

@shivamverma9515 3 года назад

Read everything but understood nothing 😅

@pratulvenkatesh 3 года назад

@@shivamverma9515 Hey! So essentially, the range of the electromagnetic spectrum that we term as 'visible light,' is visible only because it has the right wavelength to interact with most matter. By interact, I am referring to reflection, absorption, etc. In comparison if the light ray is of too high wavelength (or too less), such as radiowaves and X-rays respectively, then these kinds of rays just pass through most matter. Visible light (red-blue part of spectrum) is 'visible' because it's the right size to interact and light up most things. It just happened to be a coincidence that the majority of the light we receive on earth is in this spectrum! Hope that, that explained it better?

@scubasteve6175 2 года назад

are there stars that don't emit visible light or mostly produce wavelengths outside of our spectrum? i'm just curious as you seem very knowledgeable

@pratulvenkatesh 2 года назад

@@scubasteve6175 yup the hotter the star is, shorter the wavelength of light emitted by stars is (more energy) so there are high energy stars that produce x-rays and gamma rays produced by neutron stars, pulsars, supernovae explosions, etc. on the lower end there are cold stars that produce faint infrared rays such as brown dwarfs which are difficult to observe with visible light telescopes as they don’t produce much visible light and only infrared.

@HyungnamGu Год назад

To capture color images, a filter has to be placed over each cavity that permits only particular colors of light. Virtually all current digital cameras can only capture one of three primary colors in each cavity, and so they discard roughly 2/3 of the incoming light. As a result, the camera has to approximate the other two primary colors in order to have full color at every pixel. The most common type of color filter array is called a "Bayer array" A Bayer array consists of alternating rows of red-green and green-blue filters. Notice how the Bayer array contains twice as many green as red or blue sensors. Each primary color does not receive an equal fraction of the total area because the human eye is more sensitive to green light than both red and blue light. Redundancy with green pixels produces an image which appears less noisy and has finer detail than could be accomplished if each color were treated equally. This also explains why noise in the green channel is much less than for the other two primary colors.

@GururajBN 2 года назад

Our smart phones are pretty thin. I am impressed that within that thin space there’s a tiny motor which moves the lenses back and forth for focusing. And there are semiconductor layers and micro lenses for each pixel points. There are sixteen million of them in a moderate quality camera. This degree of miniaturisation is inconceivable for a lay person like me. I prostrate before the collective genius of the scientists, designers and engineers who made the smart phone cameras work so well. I don’t even want to ask who makes the camera lenses, micro lenses, what is the manufacturing method. It must have been a huge effort to squeeze in all these intricate details in a fourteen minutes video. I felt that this episode could have been restricted to mere description of the smartphone cameras and the electronics could have been discussed in a separate video.

Our eyes works as the camera optic nerve as the pcb our long term memory as SSD and short term memory as Ram where the image you just see gets stored then brain run a identification algorithm and it run through your whole memory and find the object similar to wht you are seeing that's how you identify things.. then it runs another algorithm to determine at what level of importance the object you are seeing hold... If it is not important your brain keep that in the temporary memory and flushes it out with time ....... depending upon the importance point the object you are seeing gets like if its on 1 you are basically going through your everyday routine and your brain will clear it in about 10 to 30 mins and if it were of level 5 (higest level) like your crush just proposed you then your brain stores it in long term memory and at the same time run other algorithm to give additional attributes/tags to the memory such a certain smell or a view (which explains why you feel nostalgic to some smells or images).so if you continue learning things the database in your brain keeps getting bigger and bigger which results in intelligence cause your brain will have more things in database to compare...with Fun fact your brain never stops learning .. it learnd to keep on doing things when you are not even paying attention like putting food in your mouth or breathing ,chewing without hurting your toung and walking with a samrt phone it keeps on improving its autopilot. As a computer science student i find the algorithm running a human facinating and I'll love to one day implement them on machines ..
