Image :: Image (n.) The figure or picture of any object formed at the focus of a lens or mirror, by rays of light from the several points of the object symmetrically refracted or reflected to corresponding points in such focus; this may be received on a screen, a photographic plate, or the retina of the eye, and viewed directly by the eye, or with an eyeglass, as in the telescope and microscope; the likeness of an object formed by reflection; as, to see one's image in a mirror..

Reflexity :: Reflexity (n.) The state or condition of being reflected.

Catacoustic :: Catacoustic (n.) That part of acoustics which treats of reflected sounds or echoes See Acoustics.

Reflectible :: Reflectible (a.) Capable of being reflected, or thrown back; reflexible..

Reflection :: Reflection (n.) An image given back from a reflecting surface; a reflected counterpart.

Shadow :: Shadow (n.) A reflected image, as in a mirror or in water..

Anacamptics :: Anacamptics (n.) The science of reflected light, now called catoptrics..

Dioptrics :: Dioptrics (n.) The science of the refraction of light; that part of geometrical optics which treats of the laws of the refraction of light in passing from one medium into another, or through different mediums, as air, water, or glass, and esp. through different lenses; -- distinguished from catoptrics, which refers to reflected light..

Reflexible :: Reflexible (a.) Capable of being reflected, or thrown back..

Reverberate :: Reverberate (v. i.) To be driven back; to be reflected or repelled, as rays of light; to be echoed, as sound..

Excito-motory :: Excito-motory (a.) Exciting motion; -- said of that portion of the nervous system concerned in reflex actions, by which impressions are transmitted to a nerve center and then reflected back so as to produce muscular contraction without sensation or volition..

Ophthalmometer :: Ophthalmometer (n.) An instrument devised by Helmholtz for measuring the size of a reflected image on the convex surface of the cornea and lens of the eye, by which their curvature can be ascertained..

Anacamptic :: Anacamptic (a.) Reflecting of reflected; as, an anacamptic sound (and echo)..

Catoptrics :: Catoptrics (n.) That part of optics which explains the properties and phenomena of reflected light, and particularly that which is reflected from mirrors or polished bodies; -- formerly called anacamptics..

Kaleidophone :: Kaleidophone () An instrument invented by Professor Wheatstone, consisting of a reflecting knob at the end of a vibrating rod or thin plate, for making visible, in the motion of a point of light reflected from the knob, the paths or curves corresponding with the musical notes produced by the vibrations..

Reflectent :: Reflectent (a.) Bending or flying back; reflected.

Anamorphosis :: Anamorphosis (n.) A distorted or monstrous projection or representation of an image on a plane or curved surface, which, when viewed from a certain point, or as reflected from a curved mirror or through a polyhedron, appears regular and in proportion; a deformation of an image..

Mirage :: Mirage (n.) An optical effect, sometimes seen on the ocean, but more frequently in deserts, due to total reflection of light at the surface common to two strata of air differently heated. The reflected image is seen, commonly in an inverted position, while the real object may or may not be in sight. When the surface is horizontal, and below the eye, the appearance is that of a sheet of water in which the object is seen reflected; when the reflecting surface is above the eye, the image is seen pr

Albedo :: Albedo (n.) Whiteness. Specifically: (Astron.) The ratio which the light reflected from an unpolished surface bears to the total light falling upon that surface.

Diorama :: Diorama (n.) A mode of scenic representation, invented by Daguerre and Bouton, in which a painting is seen from a distance through a large opening. By a combination of transparent and opaque painting, and of transmitted and reflected light, and by contrivances such as screens and shutters, much diversity of scenic effect is produced..
