Mirrors

A mirror is an object that reflects an image. Light that bounces off a mirror will show an image of whatever is in front of it, when focused through the lens of the eye or a camera. Mirrors reverse the direction of the image in an equal yet opposite angle from which the light shines upon it. This allows the viewer to see themselves or objects behind them, or even objects that are at an angle from them but out of their field of view, such as around a corner. Natural mirrors have existed since prehistoric times, such as the surface of water, but people have been manufacturing mirrors out of a variety of materials for thousands of years, like stone, metals, and glass. In modern mirrors, metals like silver or aluminum are often used due to their high reflectivity, applied as a thin coating on glass because of its naturally smooth and very hard surface. A mirror is a wave reflector.

About Mirrors

An ex-cop and his family start to become haunted by evil forces trying to enter the world through mirrors. Alexandre Aja wrote, produced, and directed the film.

Achievement of Mirrors

The film is loosely based off the South Korean horror film, Into the Mirror. The film was mainly shot in Bucharest, Romania.

Top Facts You Did Not Know About Mirrors

Anish Kapoor (artist working with mirrors).. Aranmula kannadi - Aranmula kannadi, meaning the Aranmula mirror is a handmade metal-alloy mirror, made in Aranmula, a small town in Pathanamthitta, Kerala, India.. Chirality (mathematics) - In geometry, a figure is chiral if it is not identical to its mirror image, or, more precisely, if it cannot be mapped to its mirror image by rotations and translations alone. An object that is not chiral is said to be achiral. A chiral object and its mirror image are said to be enantiomorphs.. Corner reflector - A corner reflector is a retroreflector consisting of three mutually perpendicular, intersecting flat surfaces, which reflects waves directly towards the source, but translated. The three intersecting surfaces often have square shapes.. Deformable mirror - Deformable mirrors are mirrors whose surface can be deformed, in order to achieve wavefront control and correction of optical aberrations. Deformable mirrors are used in combination with wavefront sensors and real-time control systems in adaptive optics.. Digital micromirror device - The digital micromirror device, or DMD, is the microoptoelectromechanical system that is the core of the trademarked DLP projection technology from Texas Instruments. Texas Instrument's DMD was created by solid state physicist and TI Fellow Emeritus Dr. Larry Hornbeck in 1987.. Reflective building components.. Mirrors.. Glass applications.
