      There are technical inaccuracies in some of the things he teaches, including this one, unfortunately. Don’t get me wrong, I like him and I like what he’s doing, but some of the stuff on this channel is not quite conveying what’s really going on with accuracy. His description of why bright lights look white on a digital sensor in this video is not correct. It’s part of what’s going on, but not the biggest part.

  • @400_billion_suns
    @400_billion_suns 2 роки тому +3

    The info about the Bayer filter is mostly correct, but that’s not why this laser nor really bright lighting looks white in digital images. It looks white because it’s saturating the image sensor (under a group of the RGB filters) causing them to rail the ADC at a maximum value when the sensor is “read.” In other words-each pixel location on the sensor has gotten so much signal that it is no longer capable of reading it, and it peaks out at a maximum value. The color filter and original light color is no longer a factor if the red, blue and green photosites are all fully saturated.

    • @Foshiisland
      @Foshiisland 2 роки тому +1

      Came here to say this. I think this is more likely to be due to saturation then inefficient filters. If it was because of the filters, the apparent size of the beam would be the spot size of the laser which is likely ~10 pixels. But you can see the apparent size is most of (if not) the entire array. So you can see that it’s affecting sensors where the light never landed.

    I looked away when you lit up the screen like it was gonna explode like in Inspector Gadget.

      And I just smelt Vicks Vaporub for 15 minutes, so I'm ok - the blue light for my eyes is nothing compared to the pain due to the Vicks' vapour.

    "Don't look at your screen" LOL! Reminds me of some comments from people feeling unsafe when someone with a gun pointing it at the camera. 🤣😂🤣😂

    I like how he says to not look directly at the screen when he shines the laser at the camera.
    Next he'll say that we shouldn't look at the screen when we take a photo of the sun lmao.

    I actually always thought of looking directly at a really bright laser like this but i never do it because of obvious reasons

    I once brought a purple laser to school, i was playing with it with a friend, he then told me to shine it through his glasses. It stained the lenses, with burnt marks...

    When he said that the background is starting to burn, I put my screen brightness to full to see it. Then he proceeds to shine the laser and my phone has never been this bright. 🤣
