Source Of Illumination (Noun)
Meaning
Any device serving as a source of visible electromagnetic radiation.
Classification
Nouns denoting man-made objects.
Examples
- Lighting typically produces diffuse emission sources creating scatter-directed illuminated cloud responses following viewing-position as demonstrated prior researchers rendering indirect shading models incorrect.
- There is evidence that the Sun and moon both cast shadows resulting from direct illumination by the Sun or another source of illumination.
- In the case of X-rays, medical images are obtained essentially by illuminating an isolated object with a pencil beam of X-ray radiation that translates through the imaging volume to the source of illumination producing object transmittance at point x.
- Light can be directed through a source of illumination, like a halogen lamp, to create contrast that increases the visibility of non-conductive anomalies based on the appearance and absorption of the features.
- Reduced eye fatigue for any intensity source of illumination by utilising proper optical design, such as condenser plate, reduces glare and enhances visual contrast without requiring greater amounts illumination of the eyes.
