墨翟 (China, c. 470 - c. 391 BCE)
Mozi discovered that while in a darkened room, a tiny opening in one wall projected an upside-down image of the scene outside onto the opposite wall. He referred to this as “locked treasure room.”

Aristotle (Greece, 384 - 322 BCE)
was sitting under a tree during a solar eclipse, and noticed that each gap in the leaves projected a “mini-eclipse” onto the ground

Aristotle (Greece, 384 - 322 BCE)
a solar eclipse is when the moon passes between the Sun and the Earth - so that from the Earth, the moon looks like it’s “covering up” the sun

Aristotle
afterwards, he experimented letting light shine through different shapes of holes, but noticed that it always projected the sun as a circle (like it is in real life)
(Greece, 384 - 322 BCE)

(Greece, 384 - 322 BCE)
just like how during a solar eclipse, even circular holes will project eclipse-shaped light

interestingly, Alhazen was also the first to realize the modern understanding of vision:
light (for example, from the sun) reflects off of things, our eyes interpret that reflected light, and that’s how we are able to see them

Leonardo da Vinci (Italy, 1452-1519)

Leonardo da Vinci regarded the camera obscura as an “artificial eye”
was the first to realize that since the image seen in the camera obscura was upside-down, the HUMAN eye might see that way as well

from 1550 through 1569, other Italian scientists followed da Vinci’s lead, adding lenses - as well as mirrors - to both FOCUS the image, and CORRECT the image (make it right-side up)

“Close all the shutters and doors until no light enters the camera obscura except through the lens, and opposite hold a piece of paper which can move forward and backward until the scene appears in sharpest detail. There on the paper you will see the whole view as it really is, with its distances, its colours and shadows and motion, the clouds, the water twinkling, the birds flying. By holding the paper steady you can trace the whole perspective with a pen, shade it and delicately colour it from nature.”
