Reflection

Reflection logo #21000[computer graphics] Reflection in computer graphics is used to emulate reflective objects like mirrors and shiny surfaces. Reflection is accomplished in a ray trace renderer by following a ray from the eye to the mirror and then calculating where it bounces from, and continuing the process until no surface is found, or a non-reflective surf...

Reflection

Reflection logo #21000[computer programming] In computer science, reflection is the ability of a computer program to examine (see type introspection) and modify the structure and behavior (specifically the values, meta-data, properties and functions) of the program at runtime. Reflection is most commonly used in high-level virtual machine programming languages l...

Reflection

Reflection logo #21000[mathematics] In mathematics, a reflection (also spelled reflexion) is a mapping from a Euclidean space to itself that is an isometry with a hyperplane as a set of fixed points; this set is called the axis (in dimension 2) or plane (in dimension 3) of reflection. The image of a figure by a reflection is its mirror image in the axis or plane...

Reflection

Reflection logo #21000[physics] Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated. Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is inci...

reflection

reflection logo #22291 The event occurring when light hits a material and bounces off of it. There are different degrees of reflection, the strongest being light rays bouncing off a smooth, flat, polished surface, such as a mirror, where they bounce off and form a reversed image on the surface.
