Tripelspiegel / Triple Mirror

Stations-ID: D049

Instructions:

Three mirrors are standing vertically to each other. Is it possible to get a mirror image in such a construction?

• What can you see at the centre, where all three mirrors meet?
• How many reflections can you see?
• Move back and forth in front of the triple mirror and look into the centre. What can you see?

Surface reflectors, such as those found on bicycles, have a reflective surface in the form of many small triple mirrors and are also known as “cat’s eyes”. The eyes of real cats also reflect incoming light, but this is due to the tapetum lucidum, a layer of light – reflecting cells in the cat’s eye
