Observer 60 Ultra Parts Diagram 2 Congratulations on your purchase of a quality Orion telescope! Your new Observer 60mm Ultra Altazimuth Refractor is designed primarily for astronomical viewing, but can also be used for terrestrial observation (with the recommended addition of an image-erecting prism). If you have never used a telescope before, we would like to welcome you to amateur astronomy. Take some time to familiarize yourself with the night sky. Learn to recognize the patterns of stars in the major constellations; a star wheel, or planisphere, available from Orion or your local telescope shop, will greatly help. With a little practice, a little patience, and a reasonably dark sky away from city lights, you'll find your telescope to be a never-ending source of wonder, exploration, and relaxation. These instructions will help you set up and properly use and care for your telescope. Please read them over thoroughly before getting started. Table of Contents 1.

  • Depth-Aware Blending of Smoothed Images for Bokeh Effect Generation
    1 Depth-aware Blending of Smoothed Images for Bokeh Effect Generation Saikat Duttaa,∗∗ aIndian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, PIN-600036, India ABSTRACT Bokeh effect is used in photography to capture images where the closer objects look sharp and every- thing else stays out-of-focus. Bokeh photos are generally captured using Single Lens Reflex cameras using shallow depth-of-field. Most of the modern smartphones can take bokeh images by leveraging dual rear cameras or a good auto-focus hardware. However, for smartphones with single-rear camera without a good auto-focus hardware, we have to rely on software to generate bokeh images. This kind of system is also useful to generate bokeh effect in already captured images. In this paper, an end-to-end deep learning framework is proposed to generate high-quality bokeh effect from images. The original image and different versions of smoothed images are blended to generate Bokeh effect with the help of a monocular depth estimation network. The proposed approach is compared against a saliency detection based baseline and a number of approaches proposed in AIM 2019 Challenge on Bokeh Effect Synthesis. Extensive experiments are shown in order to understand different parts of the proposed algorithm. The network is lightweight and can process an HD image in 0.03 seconds. This approach ranked second in AIM 2019 Bokeh effect challenge-Perceptual Track. 1. Introduction tant problem in Computer Vision and has gained attention re- cently.

Salter 1 and Martin J. Booth1 Abstract Adaptive optics are becoming a valuable tool for laser processing, providing enhanced functionality and flexibility for a range of systems. Using a single adaptive element, it is possible to correct for aberrations introduced when focusing inside the workpiece, tailor the focal intensity distribution for the particular fabrication task and/or provide parallelisation to reduce processing times. This is particularly promising for applications using ultrafast lasers for three- dimensional fabrication. We review recent developments in adaptive laser processing, including methods and applications, before discussing prospects for the future. Introduction enhance ultrafast DLW.

The ultrashort nature of elements can modulate the phase, amplitude and/or the laser pulses means that energy can be delivered to the polarisation of the fabrication beam, providing many focus in a period shorter than the characteristic timescale possibilities for advanced control of the laser fabrication for thermal diffusion, leading to highly accurate material process.

  • C5 Spotting Scope XLT 52291
    C5 Spotting Scope - #52291 Instruction Manual A spotting scope is nothing more than a telescope that is designed to look around the Earth. Unlike astronomical telescopes, which produce inverted or reverted images, spotting scopes produce correctly oriented images. Celestron offers several different models, each of which uses the highest quality optics to produce the best possible images. All models have rugged, durable housings to give you a lifetime of pleasure with a minimal amount of maintenance. Your Celestron spotting scope is designed to give you hours of fun and rewarding observations. There are, however, a few things to consider before using your spotting scope that will ensure your safety and protect your equipment. • Never look directly at the Sun with the naked eye or with your spotting scope. Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result. • Never use your spotting scope to project an image of the Sun onto any surface. Internal heat build-up can damage your spotting scope and/or any accessories attached to it. • Never use an eyepiece solar filter or a Herschel wedge. Internal heat build- up inside your spotting scope can cause these devices to crack or break, allowing unfiltered sunlight to pass through to the eye. • Never leave your spotting scope unsupervised, either when children are present or adults who may not be familiar with the correct operating procedures of your spotting scope. • Never point your spotting scope at the Sun unless you have the proper solar filter. We recommend Celestron solar filters only. Don't take chances -- use Celestron filters for safety and performance! When using your spotting scope with the proper solar filter, ALWAYS cover the finderscope.

  • A Theoretical and Practical Introduction to Optics a Theoretical and Practical Introduction to Optics
    White Paper A Theoretical and Practical Introduction to Optics A Theoretical and Practical Introduction to Optics Be honest: do you really know how to calculate the focal length of a lens? If so, you are an exception to the rule and can stop reading here !! For the rest of you, here is a second chance. Back to square one "Piece of broken glass starts forest fire"– a common headline during the summer. But how could this have happened? Due to the enormous distance between the Earth and the Sun, the Sun only appears as a tiny point emitting parallel rays of light (figure 1a) Should these parallel rays pass through a lens (or a piece of glass, which has similar characteristics) the rays would meet behind the lens at what is called the focal point. But what happens if our point of light is so near to the lens that we can not assume to have parallel rays of light? They cross each other behind the focal point (figure 1b). If we take a look at the image of our point of light at the focal points position we will see a unclear blurred spot. And so the question arises- "what is focusing?". Focusing is to increase the distance between the focal plane and the lens until the focal plane and the junction of the rays overlap each other (figure 1c). Thus, for single points of light the situation is quite simple. But what happens to the image of screws, PCBs or plates of steel? From points of light to images A point of light does not necessarily originate directly from the sun, candles or lamps, it can also result from a reflection.
