<span class="mw-page-title-main">Perspective distortion</span> Transformation of an object and its surrounding area that differs from its normal focal length

In photography and cinematography, perspective distortion is a warping or transformation of an object and its surrounding area that differs significantly from what the object would look like with a normal focal length, due to the relative scale of nearby and distant features. Perspective distortion is determined by the relative distances at which the image is captured and viewed, and is due to the angle of view of the image being either wider or narrower than the angle of view at which the image is viewed, hence the apparent relative distances differing from what is expected. Related to this concept is axial magnification – the perceived depth of objects at a given magnification.

<i>Phacops</i> Genus of arthropods (fossil)

Phacops is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, family Phacopidae, that lived in Europe, northwestern Africa, North and South America and China from the Late Ordovician until the very end of the Devonian, with a broader time range described from the Late Ordovician. It was a rounded animal, with a globose head and large eyes, and probably fed on detritus. Phacops is often found rolled up ("volvation"), a biological defense mechanism that is widespread among smaller trilobites but further perfected in this genus.

<i>Calymene</i> Extinct genus of trilobites

Calymene Brongniart, 1822, is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, suborder Calymenina, that are found throughout North America, North Africa, and Europe in primarily Silurian outcrops. Calymene is closely related to Flexicalymene, and both genera are frequently found enrolled. Calymene trilobites are small, typically 2 cm in length. The cephalon is the widest part of the animal and the thorax usually has 13 segments.

The resulting images may be stored for viewing later or displayed in real time.

It also contains the species Denckmannites morator, and Denckmannites primaevus. The type locality was the Kopanina Formation.

<i>Lonchodomas</i> Extinct genus of trilobites

Lonchodomas is a genus of trilobites, that lived during the Ordovician. It was eyeless, like all raphiophorids, and had a long straight sword-like frontal spine, that gradually transforms into the relatively long glabella. Both the glabellar spine and the backward directed genal spines are subquadrate in section. Lonchodomas has five thorax segments and the pleural area of the pygidium has two narrow furrows. Lonchodomas occurred in what are today Argentina, Canada (Newfoundland), Estonia, Latvia, Norway, Sweden, the Russian Federation and the United States.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Diaphanometopidae</span> Extinct family of trilobites

Diaphanometopidae is a family of trilobites. Its representatives lived during the Arenig and Llanvirn stages of the Ordovician Period, approximately 479 to 463 million years ago. The Diaphanometopidae are thought to have been an early transitional group between the Ptychopariida ancestors and all other Phacopina. Diaphanometopidae, are found in the Lower and Middle Ordovician of Sweden and Russia. Three species are assigned to this family: Diaphanometopus volborthi that has been found in the Dapingian of Baltica, Gyrometopus lineatus occurring in the Floian of Baltica and Prodalmanitina nikolaevi that is known from the Floian of Kolyma. These species have many ancestral characters compared to other Phacopina, but they do not seem to be each other's nearest relatives, which makes it unlikely this family will be maintained when the phylogeny has been studied in more detail.
