Alhazen
Alhazen, the Latinized name of Abū 'Alī al-Hasan ibn al-Hasan ibn al-Haytham, was born Basra, in what was then part of the Abbasid Caliphate is now in the Republic of Iraq, in 965.
No. The first 'camera' (camera obscura) was built about a thousand years ago by Iraqi scientist Ibn al-Haytham (Alhazen) . This camera was pretty huge!
To be politically correct: no. To be correct: yes. Although he didn't invent the actual device, he is credited with figuring out the facts needed to design and construct most types of optics. i) Figured out how to make concave and convex lenses by melting glass with ?steam?. ii) Figured out the mathematical calculations for said scope. iii) Figured out the perceptual limitations of the eye. iv) Figured out the scientific method and defunked most theories in respect to mythology being involved in our perception.
In Alhazen's "Perspectiva," he integrated classical works on optics, particularly those of Euclid and Ptolemy. Alhazen built upon their theories and experiments to develop his own understanding of vision and light. His work was instrumental in advancing the field of optics beyond what the classical works had established.
he proposed that eye is a receiver of light, refraction, calculated the thickness of air around us.
He was believed to be born in 965 and died in 1040. He lived in Basra, Arab (current day Iraq) and Cairo, Egypt.
