2. Light reflectance value - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Reflectance_Value

   In architecture, light reflectance value (LRV), is a measure of visible and usable light that is reflected from a surface when illuminated by a light source. [1] The measurement is most commonly used by design professionals, such as architectural color consultants , architects , environmental graphic designers and interior designers .

[ 1 ] [ 2 ] In Britain , the transom light is usually referred to as a fanlight , often with a semi-circular shape, especially when the window is segmented like the slats of a folding hand fan .

4. Parabolic reflector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabolic_reflector

   A parabolic (or paraboloid or paraboloidal) reflector (or dish or mirror) is a reflective surface used to collect or project energy such as light, sound, or radio waves. Its shape is part of a circular paraboloid , that is, the surface generated by a parabola revolving around its axis.

5. Infinity mirror - Wikipedia

   A self-contained infinity mirror used as a wall decoration. In a classic self-contained infinity mirror, a set of light bulbs, LEDs, or other point-source lights are placed around the periphery of a fully reflective mirror, and a second, partially reflective "one-way mirror" is placed a short distance in front of it, in a parallel alignment.

6. 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 ...

7. Mirror image - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_image

   A mirror hanging on the wall makes the room brighter because additional light sources appear in the mirror image. However, the appearance of additional light does not violate the conservation of energy principle, because some light no longer reaches behind the mirror, as the mirror simply re-directs the light energy. In terms of the light ...
