  2. Non-reversing mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-reversing_mirror

    The thousands of tiny mirrors are angled to create a surface that curves and bends in different directions. The curves direct rays from an object across the mirror's face before sending them back to the viewer, flipping the conventional mirror image. [1] A patent for a non-reversing mirror was issued to John Joseph Hooker in 1887. [2]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SolidWorks

    SolidWorks (stylized as SOLIDWORKS) is a brand within Dassault Systèmes that develops and markets software for solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), 3D CAD design, collaboration, analysis, and product data management. [2] The company introduced one of the first 3D CAD applications designed to run on a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video-in_video-out

    Video in video out (usually seen as the acronym VIVO), commonly pronounced (/ ˈ v i. v oʊ / VEE-voh), is a graphics port which enables some video cards to have bidirectional (input and output) analog video transfer through a mini-DIN connector, usually of the 9-pin variety, and a specialised splitter cable (which can sometimes also transfer analog audio).

  5. Spatial light modulator - Wikipedia

    Unlike ordinary displays, they are usually much smaller (having an active area of about 2 cm²) as they are not normally meant to be viewed directly. An example of an EASLM is the digital micromirror device (DMD) at the heart of DLP displays or LCoS Displays using ferroelectric liquid crystals ( FLCoS ) or nematic liquid crystals (electrically ...

  6. One-way mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_mirror

    A one-way mirror is typically used as an apparently normal mirror in a brightly lit room, with a much darker room on the other side. People on the brightly lit side see their own reflection—it looks like a normal mirror. People on the dark side see through it—it looks like a transparent window. The light from the bright room reflected from ...

  7. Dielectric mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_mirror

    Thin layers with a high refractive index n 1 are interleaved with thicker layers with a lower refractive index n 2. The path lengths l A and l B differ by exactly one wavelength, which leads to constructive interference. The reflectivity of a dielectric mirror is based on the interference of

  8. Spinning mirror system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinning_mirror_system

    Figure 1: Diagram and image of a spinning mirror system. The diagram shows the mirror system and the synchronized engine that displays light from the high speed video projector . Spinning mirror systems are used to build interactive 3D graphics and autostereoscopic visuals visible to multiple simultaneous viewers, since a different view can be ...

  9. Specular reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specular_reflection

    The image in a flat mirror has these features: It is the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front. It is the same size as the object. It is the right way up (erect). It is reversed. It is virtual, meaning that the image appears to be behind the mirror, and cannot be projected onto a screen.
