What is the Definition of a real object?

Remember the chicken discussion in The Maxtrix. I liked that explanation.





What is reality? It is something we feel, smell, taste, see, or hear? But then again, all these sensations are electrical impulses that is relayed to our brain and our brain interpret those impulses. If that is true then something that is real is really our interpretation of impulses.





Let me ask, if a person with schizophrenia is hallucinating about a flower pot in front of him and everyone else around him doesn't see it. Does that mean its not real. It may not be real to everyone else but it is very really to that schizophrenic person.





Which brings me to my next point. I think reality is based on consensual and shared interpretations. If 100 people can agree that a red table is a red table then its a red table. well then again if you were color blind you wouldn't see red :). Now lets say another alien species which could see infrared saw that table. Our interpretation and the alien's interpretation of color would be very different. Lets take another example: a photograph. To most people a photograph can be easily identified. However, to a tribe in Borereo the photograph may represent a captured soul. In this instance culture definitely affects our interpretation of reality.





So to define what a real object is not very easy or even possible to do.





I also thought it was funny to describe the fourth dimension as time in defining an object. I mean what exactly does that mean. My table or photograph ain't got a clock on it last time i checkedWhat is the Definition of a real object?
Real objects are antithesis of imaginary objectsWhat is the Definition of a real object?
Go stand in front of a mirror.





You will see two of yourself.





The one you can touch is the real object.
its matter that u can feel...
Depends on your context. In optics, a real object is one that is physical and not an image.





I go back to Morpheus' explanation in the Matrix:





What is real? How do you define real? If it is something you can see, taste, or touch, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.





You have to be careful with this question too, because it is awfully close to philosophy. Those quacks can spend hours on end arguing whether or not the chair in the middle of the room is actually there.





So, steering clear of philosophy, I would have to go with this: a real object is one that is under the influence of the laws of this Universe. In other words, it has to obey the laws.
The point(s) from which light rays diverge as they enter a lens or mirror.
any object that can be defined with for dimensions - three of space and one of time
A real object is one that doesn't go away just because you stop believing in it.
A real object is one that can be sensed with one or more senses or by their extensions.





The senses are touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing. Any instrument through which you can observe using one or more senses is an extension of the senses.
Any object or any existence that shows the characteristicness of limitation/limtless oriented dimentional application of height breadth width whose totality is nothing but the system of tangible/ non-tangible system as of massive substantiality as of mass or micro mass of matter or infinite system of space based on the basis of potential vacuity system having been involved in the same way as of described above[application] should be regarded as real object, beside this even space exist as real potentioal existence, because it exists as real existenc only unsubstantialy, %26amp; It should not be confused that it is non-existence entity because it exist as real, open [unlike closed systems as of mass or matter!!
