Junior Scientist Pin Hole Camera (Study Project)

Pinhole cameras with a lens to model the human eye. In this activity, students make a pinhole camera and see images formed on an internal screen. They then use a lens and see brighter and sharper images. This models the human eye. By the end of this activity, students should be able to:1. describe how a pinhole camera produces a small upside-down image 2. explain why a larger hole produces a brighter but less focused image. 3.observe how a lens placed in front of the pinhole camera produces a bright and sharply focused image. 4. compare a pinhole camera with a human eye, describing similarities and differences.
