Description

This lecture explores the resolution power of the human eye, specifically focusing on the angle at which two sources can still be distinguished. By applying the Rayleigh criterion and the small angle approximation, the minimum angle for differentiation is calculated. Geometrical analysis is used to determine the minimum distance required for resolution, resulting in a distance of approximately 820 meters.
