  2. Non-reversing mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-reversing_mirror

    A non-reversing mirror can be made by connecting two regular mirrors at their edges at a 90° angle. If the joint is positioned so that it is vertical, an observer looking into the angle sees a non-reversed image. Such an image is visible while looking toward the corner where the two mirrors meet.

  3. Mirror image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_image

    In the case of two mirrors, in planes at an angle α, looking through both from the sector which is the intersection of the two halfspaces, is like looking at a version of the world rotated by an angle of 2α; the points of observations and directions of looking for which this applies correspond to those for looking through a frame like that of ...

  4. Flipped image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flipped_image

    A flipped image is a static or moving image that is generated by a mirror-reversal of an original across a horizontal axis, making the image upside-down. In contrast, a flopped image is mirrored across the vertical axis, as in a conventional mirror image. [1]

  5. Mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror

    A mirror reflecting the image of a vase A first-surface mirror coated with aluminium and enhanced with dielectric coatings. The angle of the incident light (represented by both the light in the mirror and the shadow behind it) exactly matches the angle of reflection (the reflected light shining on the table). 4.5-metre (15 ft)-tall acoustic mirror near Kilnsea Grange, East Yorkshire, UK, from ...

  6. Ambigram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambigram

    Vertical axis mirror ambigrams find clever applications in mirror writing (or specular writing), that is formed by writing in the direction that is the reverse of the natural way for a given language, such that the result is the mirror image of normal writing: it appears normal when it is reflected in a mirror. For example, the word "ambulance ...

    Instead of having mirrors over the sink, many Disney guests have noticed instead there’s a full-length mirror by the door so people can check their appearance on their way out.

  8. Flopped image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flopped_image

    In photography and graphic arts a flopped image is a static or moving image that is generated by a reversal of an original image across a vertical axis, as in a conventional mirror image. This is opposed to a flipped image , which means an image reversed across a horizontal axis.

  9. Curved mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_mirror

    A convex mirror diagram showing the focus, focal length, centre of curvature, principal axis, etc. A convex mirror or diverging mirror is a curved mirror in which the reflective surface bulges towards the light source. [1] Convex mirrors reflect light outwards, therefore they are not used to focus light.
