The purple crosses are the foci of the larger arcs. Lit and unlit regions are shown in yellow and grey respectively. Illumination problems are a class of mathematical problems that study the illumination of rooms with mirrored walls by point light sources .
The palmar grasp reflex (or grasp reflex) is a primitive and involuntary reflex found in infants of humans and most primates. When an object, such as an adult finger, is placed in an infant's palm, the infant's fingers reflexively grasp the object. [1] Placement of the object triggers a spinal reflex, resulting from stimulation of tendons in ...
Pupillary light reflex. Variation in the size of the pupil in bright (left) and dim (right) environments. In this case the pupil is 3 mm in diameter on the left, and 9 mm on the right. The pupillary light reflex ( PLR) or photopupillary reflex is a reflex that controls the diameter of the pupil, in response to the intensity ( luminance) of ...
Purpose. whether a person has strabismus. In the fields of optometry and ophthalmology, the Hirschberg test, also Hirschberg corneal reflex test, is a screening test that can be used to assess whether a person has strabismus (ocular misalignment). A photographic version of the Hirschberg is used to quantify strabismus. [1]
These movements mimic the early reflex movements and include simple games, exercises, and age-appropriate activities. The aim is to create new learned neural pathways to help with ATNR integration.
A reflex finder is a viewfinder system with a mirror placed behind a lens. The light passing through the lens is reflected by the mirror to a focusing screen, usually ground glass. The image formed on this ground glass can be observed directly, giving a waist-level reflex finder, or through a redressing optical device (set of mirrors or prism ...
The angle we seek to maximize is β − α. The tangent of the angle increases as the angle increases; therefore it suffices to maximize. Since b − a is a positive constant, we only need to maximize the fraction that follows it. Differentiating, we get. Therefore the angle increases as x goes from 0 to √ab and decreases as x increases from ...
The vestibulo-ocular reflex ( VOR) is a reflex that acts to stabilize gaze during head movement, with eye movement due to activation of the vestibular system, it is also known as the Cervico-ocular reflex. The reflex acts to stabilize images on the retinas of the eye during head movement. Gaze is held steadily on a location by producing eye ...
