"The earliest mention of this type of device was by the Chinese philosopher Mo-Ti (5th century BC). He formally recorded the creation of an inverted image formed by light rays passing through a pinhole into a darkened room. He called this darkened room a "collecting place" or the "locked treasure room." Rack up another one for the old guys! ":O}

My Physics classroom could double-up as a "locked treasure room". It had pull down blinds which made it light tight and a pinhole in one of the blinds. So you could have a big screen projection on the wall of everyone walking past outside. Quite funny if someone was to stop and pick their nose, they would be unaware that everyone was watching them larger than life. LOL |

Its on the Royal Mile, bout halfway up, more towards the top end, as I recall. Theres a museum that goes along with it, quite interesting, I think i was abit too young when i was there to truly appreciate it though. You've probably seen it if you have been to the castle, its fairly ordinary looking buidling, with a white tower with black timbers. heres a link http://brightbytes.com/cosite/2edinb.html [edit] just found this official website ![]() ![]() [edit=2]Just had a look at said website, not much there at this time, just opening times and prices Last edited by Toro; 24th July, 2005 at 04:22 PM. |
