The bouncing back of light when it hits a surface.
Reflection
The law that states the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
The Law of Reflection
The type of reflection that occurs when light reflects off a smooth surface.
Specular Reflection
The type of reflection that occurs when light reflects off a rough surface.
Diffuse Reflection
A mirror that curves inward like the inside of a bowl.
Concave Mirror
A mirror that curves outward like the outside of a sphere.
Convex Mirror
A flat mirror that reflects light to form an image that is the same size, reversed, but not inverted.
Plane Mirror
The angle between the incoming light ray and the normal at the point of incidence.
Angle of Incidence
The angle between the reflected light ray and the normal at the point of incidence.
Angle of Reflection
An image formed in a location where light does not actually reach.
Virtual Image
An image formed where the light from an object comes together and can be formed on a screen.
Real Image
A mirror which has the shape of a piece cut out of a spherical surface.
Spherical Mirror
Devices, such as mirrors, lenses, prisms etc., used to control and manipulate light.
Optical Instruments
Mirrors that are partially reflective and partially transparent.
Two-Way Mirrors
Cables that contain one or more optical fibers that are used to carry wavefronts of light.
Fiber Optic Cables
Surfaces that are so smooth that light reflects off of them in a relatively coherent manner.
Polished Surfaces
Use of materials that reflect light as parts of illumination systems and aesthetic components.
Reflective Surfaces in Lighting and Design
Use of reflective materials to make road signs more visible at night.
