I think a pinhole camera is similar to the human eye because like the pinhole camera when it sees something it reflects the image but it is an inverted image. With the human eye the brain corrects it and turns it the right way up. The pinhole cameras image is not corrected because it does not have a lens.

Pinhole camera for sun?

A pinhole camera is a simple device that can be used to project an image of the sun without the need for lenses. It consists of a dark box or tube with a tiny hole (the pinhole) on one end and a surface (like photographic paper or a screen) on the opposite end to capture the image. When sunlight passes through the pinhole, it creates an inverted image of the sun on the surface inside the camera. This method is safe for observing the sun, as it prevents direct eye exposure to harmful rays.


What is the difference between camera and pinhole camera?

I'm looking for the same answer,someone reply!.cos' when i look on Google it suggests the similarities but not the differences-.-c'mon people:L.answ2. have a crack at Pinhole Camera in wikipedia.org, and similarly with eye.


Why is the image in a lens camera brighter than the image in a pin hole camera?

Think in terms of ray tracing. Light travels in a straight line in a pinhole camerabecause there is no refracting or reflecting optical element to change the path of the rays of light. The bottom of the film is on the line passing through the pinhole and top of the object. Since all light must pass through the pinhole, that means the top of the object exposes the bottom of the film.


What type of image is formed by the lens of a camera?

a upside down image is formed in your camera then flipped around when it is seen by the human eye -Monica Magallon


Can you see the color of the objects in pinhole camera?

Yes. If you use your eye to see the picture, you will see color. If you use photogrphic paper to record the image, whether or not you see color is determined by the nature of the film -black/white or color. There is nothing in the physics of the camera that prevents you from seeing color.

What are similarities and differences between a camera and a human eye?

The human eye can be compared to a photographic camera because the pupil of the eye and the shutter on a camera, is what controls the amount of light let in. As for differences, a human eye is alive while a camera is an inanimate object invented by man.

What is the difference between human eye and pinhole camera?

pin whole camera captures the scenery into single photo and then nobody knows what happened before and after. While human eye gives constant view. camera is man made consisting of many small machinery. in human eye there are many cells. camera is of different shapes but eye is spherical. camera is kept in a pouch while human eye is protected by orbits.


How does the human eye relate to physics?

The human eye works in a similar way to a pinhole camera with three refinements: a) an adjustable pinhole size controlled by the iris; b) a fixed converging lens across the pinhole called the cornea; c) an adjustable converging lens to focus at different distances, controlled by the brain.

How can a pinhole camera be used to safely view a solar eclipse?

A pinhole camera can be used to safely view a solar eclipse by projecting the image of the eclipse onto a surface, such as a piece of paper or a wall. This method avoids direct eye contact with the sun, reducing the risk of eye damage from the intense sunlight during the eclipse.


Explain in your own words how this simulates how the lens in the eye works?

A pinhole camera simulates how the lens in the eye works because it reflects an image onto an interior surface, such as the retina of the eye.
