Yes, but also, everyone’s brain changes all the time. We depend on its ability to change to do all kinds of things, like store new information and develop “muscle memory”. If a brain stopped changing, that would be cause for concern. :-/
I have a Sony Bravia 4K 3D tv that makes use of this. You can have 2 people wearing polarizing glasses and have each person viewing a different video while looking at the same screen. Great for fps gaming when you want to sit next to your friend but don't want anyone spying on your screen. I never knew how it worked but now I do.
This just might be THEE coolest demonstration I've yet to see on this channel. I think all of your demonstrations of how light works are the best ones because of how confusing and difficult it is to study the properties of color and light. There isn't a better demonstration out there that will show how horizontal and vertical light works.
if you're talking about the signs, see above. If you're talking about the neon dyes that are in neon clothing, it's because they reflect the invisible UV rays into the visible spectrum.
ACAB\\ Mela BAKAta yeah these are called fluorescent dye’s, they use fluorescence in order to make colours look brighter by absorbing UV rays and re-emitting them as light instantly, making it look brighter
@@hqcart1 oled screens - each pixel has a light source instead of a single back lit panel which is always on. So technically black area is actually turned off pixels instead of blocked light
"And this should be weird to you" I love it when you introduce a concept that is counterintuitive and walk us through why it's that way, but more than that I love the particular word choice "this should be weird to you," it's great.
I've always had trouble getting my head around the polarisation of light effect you show in the first half of this video - but then at 2:37 you made it finally click for me! The light *doesn't* 'go through' the filter (even though effectively it does, and we refer to it that way), it is _absorbed_ by the filter and then _emitted_ from the other side. Score a science win for the Action Lab! :-)
@Sean Leith There is light polarised in lots of different directions, not just vertical and horizontal. The video doesn't explain it great tho. also 3blue1brown and minute physics did some videos that explain the weird 3rd filter thing.
TL DR *Polarisation* Will watch to full asap. 0:48 Showing newbie polarization without technical term. 5:59 Then it also *not head tilt friendly.* 6:18 *Tiger Production*
Dude! I knew about this thingy when i was about 12 years old.... There were some guys talking about that part of the screen to be planted in glasses.. So that you could do your own job without being seen... You gave it life to it..... I WANT MY PHONE TO BE LIKE DAT
From the beginning of the video, it's not clear to me, are all possible polarizations of light linear combinations of vertically and horizontally polarized light? I expect there is nothing special about the horizontal or vertical orientations, and those are just used as basis vectors, for example you could also have the polarity along diagonals. Am i understanding this correctly? Also, It's unclear to me how a rotating polarization would come about from combining vertical or horizontally polarized light.
Yes, basically linearly polarized light is in a superposition of right and left circularly polarized light and circularly polarized light is in a superposition of linearly polarized light.
You should see what polarized light waves REALLY look like. It's far cooler than just perpendicular waves. I saw it once in a condensate experiment, and it blew my mind.
I think IMAX, and maybe some other 3D movie theaters, might have the polarization in each lens of their 3D glasses oriented 90 degrees from each other, so they can project both polarizations on to the screen, but each side blocks about half. Also, I have heard about taking the polarizer off of a display and causing you to see only a white screen a couple of years ago. It's pretty cool to actually see it - and I'm not counting those commercials about that one brand of sunglasses!
This is Linus’ video from 2 years ago but the only change is that you make it sound super smart. These are all just basic facts said in a smarter looking way.
I feel like this could be the future of VR, if you had those glasses in a room full of blank lcd screens you could put yourself anywhere in the world like a hologram deck or something. Thanks for the video

Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. The word science comes from the Latin word 'scientia', meaning “knowledge”. A branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws: the mathematical sciences. systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation. any of the branches of natural or physical science. Science is a methodology for increasing understanding. So, if your purpose is to increase your understanding, Science may be useful. It is not the only way to increase understanding, but it has the useful property that it can be used to predict the future as well as explain the past. Keep going bro! You're the best!

Circular polarization is created by combining a source of EM radiation with a 90 degree phase shifted version of itself.
Yes, basically linearly polarized light is in a superposition of right and left circularly polarized light and circularly polarized light is in a superposition of linearly polarized light.
@@TheActionLab thanks. that makes sense.
@@kenlogsdon7095 What you said isn't complete. The two polarizations have to be at 90 degrees to each other, as well as phase shifted by 90 degrees.

What I like about you is that you don't take 2 weeks to upload a video so keep it up
If blocks all light, why isn't "blackest" black?
What happens if you put polarizes on top of the flash?
Not all of the light you see is passing through the filter.
coz some light escapes due to reflection (I guess)
Because black reflects light from surroundings
My thoughts were because of the circular light that may be passing through
@@paradox9265 well, thats a good idea, but he said it can only be compose of two lights patterns. Either of three.
