Viewing Distance at Computer Workstations.... Accommodation is when the lens capsule in your eye changes shape to focus on a close object. The eyes have a default accommodation distance, called the resting point of accommodation(RPA). That is the distance at which the eyes focus when there is nothing to focus on. In total darkness our eyes are set to focus at a particular distance, so that if the lights were turned on, an object at that distance would be in clear focus. The RPA averages 30 inches for younger people and gets farther away with age.  3, record 1, English, - accommodation%20distance

[...] dispositifs à laser [...] Pour les besoins de la présente norme, la plus courte distance d'accommodation de l'œil humain a été fixée à 100 mm pour toutes les longueurs d'onde comprises entre 400 nm et 1 400 nm. Cette valeur a été choisie comme compromis car, à l'exception des personnes jeunes et de quelques myopes, tout le monde ne peut pas accommoder son œil à des distances inférieures à 100 mm.  2, record 1, French, - distance%20d%27accommodation

Distance écran/spectateur. [...] Si les sièges ou les bancs sont disposés à volonté devant un écran, bien souvent les règles sur l'aire idéale d'observation se trouvent modifiées : spontanément, les spectateurs se disposent en arc de cercle, sensiblement plus en largeur qu'en profondeur. Les moins bien placés acceptent mieux la déformation géométrique qu'une distance d'accommodation non optimale, à condition que l'écran soit peu directif pour ne pas conduire à une perte importante de luminosité.  3, record 1, French, - distance%20d%27accommodation

... reading from a computer screen ... Our eyes have what is called a "dark focus." This is the point in space where your focus would be if your eyes were totally relaxed. Imagine a pitch black room. In such an environment, where you can’t see anything, your eyes are actually focusing on a fixed point in space, that is why it is called the "dark" focus. This focus is known as the Resting Point of Accommodation (RPA) and is unique to every individual, but it usually rests more than three feet away from your face (and does not depend on time of day or age).  6, record 2, English, - resting%20point%20of%20accommodation

Laser Scanning Confocal Microscopy(LSCM, also referred to as CSLM, Confocal Scanning Laser Microscopy) is now established as a valuable tool for obtaining high resolution images and 3-D reconstructions of a variety of biological specimens. In LSCM, a laser light beam is expanded to make optimal use of the optics in the objective. Through a x-y deflection mechanism this beam is turned into a scanning beam, focussed to a small spot by an objective lens onto a fluorescent specimen. The mixture of reflected light and emitted fluorescent light is captured by the same objective and(after conversion into a static beam by the x-y scanner device) is focused onto a photodetector(photomultiplier) via a dichroic mirror(beam splitter). The reflected light is deviated by the dichroic mirror while the emitted fluorescent light passes through in the direction of the photomultiplier. A confocal aperture(pinhole) is placed in front of the photodetector, such that the fluorescent light(not the reflected light!) from points on the specimen that are not within the focal plane(the so called out-of-focus light) where the laser beam was focussed will be largly obstructed by the pinhole. In this way, out-of-focus information(both above and below the focal plane) is greatly reduced.  2, record 5, English, - confocal%20laser%20scanning%20microscopy

Principe de la microscopie confocale à balayage laser (MCBL). Le rayon laser excitateur pénètre dans l'échantillon préalablement marqué par des fluorochromes [...], auparavant répertoriés et choisis en fonction de leurs propriétés à se fixer sur des molécules particulières d'une structure ou d'un objet d'intérêt. Lors de l'impact optique, il y a émission de rayons lumineux provenant de différents plans de la préparation. Grâce à un diaphragme variable («trou d'aiguille» - pinhole), il est possible de sélectionner les rayons émis par un seul plan de préparation et d'éliminer le signal provenant d'autres plans. Les rayons réfléchis sont filtrés en fonction de leur longueurs d'onde puis détectés par des photo-multiplicateurs. Le signal reçu est enfin converti en signal numérique, contribuant à la création d'une image [...]  2, record 5, French, - microscopie%20confocale%20%C3%A0%20balayage%20laser
