Physics Tutorial: Refraction and the Ray Model of Light
In this diagram, five incident rays are drawn along with their corresponding refracted rays. Each ray intersects at the image location and then travels to the eye of an observer. Every observer would …

Ray Diagrams for Lenses - HyperPhysics
The ray diagrams for concave lenses inside and outside the focal point give similar results: an erect virtual image smaller than the object. The image is always formed inside the focal length of the lens.
We can set up a scene using geometric primitives and transformations, we know how to set up a camera at a specific location and orientation, and we can determine the projection from points on object …
Ray Tracing - NVIDIA Developer
Ray tracing generates computer graphics images by tracing the path of light from the view camera (which determines your view into the scene), through the 2D viewing plane (pixel plane), out into the …
Lecture 2 | Formation of Images, Ray Tracing
LightXlab simulates ray diagrams for various optical configurations. Watch the pre-lecture videos and read through the OpenStax text before doing the pre-lecture homework or attending class.
Tutorials: Ray diagrams - PhysPort
Students are given two ray diagrams for an observer looking at a pin that is placed behind a beaker of water. In one case the image is real; in the other, virtual. Students use the ray diagrams to determine …
Lenses, Ray Tracing, and Simple Optical Devices
Now that we have some basic information about the principles used to build Ray Tracing diagram, we can explain the step-by-step procedure for creating a diagram for a lens of known focal length:
First of all, here is a diagram showing the four rays for a concave mirror, where the dashed line is the principal axis, the object is the upright arrow at O, the center of curvature is the dot at C, the image is …
If we think of light as a jet of particles called photons we create a ray of light that travels in a straight line until it encounters an optical device like a mirror or lens. Using key points in the layout of these …
