 SGHA Research ~ Photograph analysis ~ Birdcage Theater Photo

A digital image can be treated as a data set to extract information. This is the information that we extracted from a digital photograph taken during a investigation at the Jerome Mining Museum.

A digital image can be treated as a data set to extract information. Each pixel's intensity value is a measure of how much energy was used to generate it within the band of spectrum used to produce the image. The sum of the pixel intensities is a measure of the total energy used to create the whole image.

Photograph 2231

This photograph was taken during an EM event that was accompiened by a perceived cold spot and the feeling of being watched.

A surface plot analysis of the photograph shows that the oject is reflecting the colors on the wall to the left. We were also able to determine that the object is three dimensional and has a refraction indice of 1.000449.

If the refractive index of a medium is not constant, but varies gradually with position, the material is known as a gradient-index medium and is described by gradient index optics .

Light travelling through such a medium can be bent or focussed, and this effect can be exploited to produce lenses , some optical fibers and other devices. Some common mirages are caused by a spatially-varying refractive index of air.

Programs used for analysis: Scanalyze, Analyze 7.0
