AI How A Camera Works

 A DSLR (Digital Single-Lens Reflex) camera works by using a combination of mirrors, lenses, and sensors to capture images. Here’s a step-by-step explanation along with a diagram:

How a DSLR Camera Works

  1. Light Entry: Light enters the camera through the lens.
  2. Mirror Reflection: The light hits a mirror positioned at a 45-degree angle inside the camera body.
  3. Viewfinder: The mirror reflects the light up into a pentaprism, which then directs it into the optical viewfinder. This allows you to see exactly what the lens sees.
  4. Shutter Release: When you press the shutter button, the mirror flips up, blocking the light from the viewfinder and allowing it to pass directly to the image sensor.
  5. Image Capture: The shutter opens, and the light hits the image sensor, which captures the image.
  6. Image Processing: The sensor converts the light into an electrical signal, which is then processed and saved as a digital image file on the memory card.

Here’s a simplified diagram to illustrate these steps:

Key Components

  • Lens: Focuses light onto the mirror.
  • Mirror: Reflects light up into the pentaprism.
  • Pentaprism: Directs light into the viewfinder.
  • Shutter: Opens to allow light to hit the sensor.
  • Image Sensor: Captures the light and converts it into a digital image.

This process happens very quickly, allowing DSLR cameras to capture high-qualit

The Great AI Academic Scandal In Northern University

 As anyone who follows here, will know that I have a love all things technology related. I think, personally AI is one of the greatest innovations in computing, probably since the internet itself. I do think also a lot of AI is over-hyped. It's a buzzword. nano, organic electronics, MEMS etc. However, it is one that seems to deliver unlike perhaps compared to organic electronics. However, call a spade a spade, not an AI digging implement generated for removal of soil. It is a spade. The other thing you will know, is that I have a specific dim view often of many areas of the establishment. One such area is Academic Abuse. I was therefore interested to read an article ( source ), about how students are en-mass using AI to do their work. Take into account that certainly at this particular university there are mass problems, that are well documented. The abuse towards students by racist academic staff. Bullying of staff and students. Inappropriate Male behaviour towards female students...

 So I always thought the internet and people would chat. clearly what do i know.. so i asked AI for help The Power of Connection: Encouraging Engagement on Social Media Posts In an age where social media is the heartbeat of digital communication, engagement has become the currency of connection. Whether you're a business, a content creator, or just someone who wants to share their thoughts with the world, encouraging comments on your social media posts can help you build a vibrant community, foster meaningful conversations, and amplify your message. But how do you inspire your audience to engage with your content? Let’s explore some effective strategies! 1.  Ask Open-Ended Questions One of the simplest and most effective ways to encourage comments is to ask open-ended questions. Instead of questions that can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no," prompt your audience with questions that require a more thoughtful response. For example, instead of asking, "...

  Writing here as the founder of Alchemise Innovation, my background was science and technology based. However, in recent times I felt it was time for a change. I didn't want to be part of a larger company and get swallowed up in politics I felt were wrong. Also, I realised that now was probably my last opportunity to at least try my own business. Having spent the last 5 years looking at spin out opportunities, and with a desire to keep myself relevant in the science and technology sector, I looked for options. It made sense to me to look at AI (artificial intelligence) from an end user perspective. This lead to image design amongst other possibilities. In fact, originally my vision was that AI would do everything.... if only! To take this forwards, I set up what is now called Alchemise Innovation. The challenge is to fuse together ideas, ways of working, capabilities to give the final outputs. Our key output is images, and we work with a well known print-on-demand (POD) company to...
