This exhibit area, which is located in the second room of the section “Archeology of Cinema,” is also accessible to visually-impaired and blind visitors thanks to the use of three-dimensional models and visual-tactile information panels.
The experiences and drawings are meant to clearly illustrate some of the fundamental phenomena that, over the centuries, have been the object of studies involving human vision, the properties of light and optic instruments.
The exhibit features five successive stages:
- light and its propagation;
- the functional similarities between the human eye and the camera obscura;
- different effects of reflection created by various types of mirrors;
- effects of refraction created by lenses;
- the importance of these phenomena in the process which led to the birth of cinema.
