Ibn Al Haytham<br />
(965–c.1040)<br />
• His Optics, which relied<br />
on experiment rather<br />
than on past authority,<br />
introduced the idea that<br />
light rays emanate in<br />
straight lines in all<br />
directions from every<br />
point on a luminous<br />
surface. Sight occurs<br />
when the ray hits the<br />
eye ( 光 學 : 根 據 實 驗<br />
而 非 古 代 權 威 , 直 線 傳<br />
播 , 視 覺 )<br />
