  2. Metering mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metering_mode

    This mode meters a larger area than spot metering (around 10–15% of the entire frame), and is generally used when very bright or very dark areas on the edges of the frame would otherwise unduly influence the metering. As in spot metering, some cameras can use variable points for readings or use a fixed point in the centre of the viewfinder.

    In 1969 the 350 HO was upgraded again with the addition of the 400 HO cam, commonly referred to by enthusiasts as the 068 cam. Also added was the #48 casting number heads with a 68 cc (4.15 cu in) chamber for higher compression, along with larger 2.11 and 1.77 in (54 and 45 mm) valves.

  4. Full body scanner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_body_scanner

    A full-body scanner is a device that detects objects on or inside a person's body for security screening purposes, without physically removing clothes or making physical contact. Unlike metal detectors, full-body scanners can detect non-metal objects, which became an increasing concern after various airliner bombing attempts in the 2000s.

  5. Action camera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_camera

    An action camera or action cam is a digital camera designed for recording action while being immersed in it. Action cameras are therefore typically compact, rugged, and waterproof at the surface level. They typically use CMOS image sensors, [1] and can take photos in burst mode and time-lapse mode as well as record high-definition video (as of ...

  6. Optical transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_transfer_function

    The line-spread function is directly proportional to the vertical integration of the point-spread image. The optical-transfer function (OTF) is defined as the Fourier transform of the point-spread function and is thus generally a two-dimensional complex function. Typically only a one-dimensional slice is shown (c), corresponding to the Fourier ...

    Total body surface area. Total body surface area ( TBSA) is an assessment of injury to or disease of the skin, such as burns or psoriasis . In adults, the Wallace rule of nines can be used to determine the total percentage of area burned for each major section of the body. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_number-plate...

    Automatic number-plate recognition can be used to store the images captured by the cameras as well as the text from the license plate, with some configurable to store a photograph of the driver. Systems commonly use infrared lighting to allow the camera to take the picture at any time of day or night. [1] [2] ANPR technology must take into ...
