History of Optics ~300 BC: Euclid (Alexandria) In his Optica he noted that light travels
in straight lines and described the law of reflection. believed that vision involves rays going from the eyes to the
object seen. studied the relationship between the apparent sizes of objects
and the angles that they subtend at the eye.

History of Optics ~1000 AD: Ibn al-Haytham gave the first correct explanation of
vision, showing that light is reflected from an object into the eye. Wrote 7 volume work on Optics, Kitab al-Manazir. Translated into Latin

History of Optics ~1278: Witelo wrote Perspectiva, which became the standard text
for optics for the next few centuries Largely taken from al-Haytham’s work, recently translated Greatly influenced Kepler (of the Laws of Planetary Motion fame) and
Leonardo da Vinci Witelo had a moon crater named after him, Vitello

Renaissance Perspective Filippo Brunelleschi (1377-1446)
Inventor of linear perspective Architect of dome on Florence Cathedral understood that there should be a single vanishing point to
which all parallel lines in a plane converge. correctly computed the relation between the actual length of an
object and its length in the picture depending on its distancebehind the plane of the canvas.
