Wide-angle viewing systems are used for many intraocular procedures and for effective inspection of the peripheral retina. They can be used with phakic, aphakic and pseudophakic eyes as well as under various viewing conditions in eyes filled with gas, fluid, or silicone oil. They offer a broad view of the patient's pathology while providing good depth perception. Both contact and noncontact systems are available.... Proper case selection and use of illumination and magnification are adjunctive maneuvers that aid in viewing with these systems and are as vital to obtaining an ideal surgical view as the specific wide-angle viewing system that is selected. 3, record 1, English, - wide%2Dangle%20viewing%20system

Indirect ophthalmoscope. It has a separate power supply, a separate illumination, separate focussing and magnifying system [than the direct ophthalmoscope. ] The illumination system is worn on the forehead of the examiner. The magnifier also known as condenser is held in the right hand of the examiner.... The indirect ophthalmoscope gives a real, inverted and magnified image of the fundus. The image is formed in front of the eye of the patient. The magnification depends upon the power of the magnifier. The stronger is the magnifier(condenser), the less is the magnification. 5, record 2, English, - indirect%20ophthalmoscope

A real-time digital video-image-processing system contributes to the automation of weld-seam tracking. The tracking system makes no contact with the seam. A small television camera views the seam just ahead of the point currently being welded. The welding arc provides the illumination. Periodically, a frame grabber digitizes the video image and stores it in a computer memory as gray-scale values. The seam is located by analyzing Hough-transform arrays of derivatives of digitally-filtered image data. The information on the location and orientation of the seam is used as feedback by a welding robot to correct deviations of the electrode from the seam as welding continues. 1, record 12, English, - real%2Dtime%20digital%20video%2Dimage%2Dprocessing%20system
