What Does It Look Like INSIDE a Spherical Mirror?

In this video I put a small camera inside a real spherical mirror in order to show what it looks like. Does the light reflect forever? What does the reflection look like? Watch the amazing properties of spherical mirrors in this amazing video.

Some people wanted me to show you the view of the camera in the middle of the sphere when the spheres were closed. However, this view looks the same as when the camera barely enters the oncoming mirror. At the midpoint is right when the light/camera enters its own reflection. Right at the midpoint is when the camera takes up it's whole field of view. This looks the same whether the sphere is completely open or closed. So the way I did it in the video actually shows all the views you would see moving around inside the sphere.

No mirror is 100% reflective. A little bit of light is absorbed with every bounce off a surface. Light travels so fast that the light disappearing seems instant

My guess for why we have never try to make a room like that is because the materials to make it is very hard to use, so to be able to "bend" (wrong word but idk the word to use) the mirror into a sphere is extremely tough and might be impractical. But this is just a guess with now basis so don't trust me

This is one of my experiments I thought of when I was a young child 50+ years ago noticing the distortions when I went to a fun house. Anyhow, I soon got to see a two-way mirror and always wondered what it would be like with a two-way mirror sphere; one experiment with reflection on outside and viewing from inside or vice-versa. Wondered then if a two way sphere with the mirror on inside were exposed to sunlight or laser would it generate lots of heat and other fun things. Never got a chance to test ithem...should say play with them.

[@joybreegaming8781]

The issue with two way mirrors is that they arnt actually 2 way mirrors. They work by having one side brighter then the other which causes it to reflect simalarly to how if you look out a window at night with a light on in the room you will see the reflection of the room. This means you wouldn’t be able to do something with shining a laser into the sphere as the inside of the sphere would have to be brighter than the outside to shine

Normally the head in the middle would block the reflections between the two mirrors, but if we just disable that in Blender, the back-side-upisde-down reflection gets flipped back to normal in the front-side-mirror, and vise-versa, ending with bunch of reflections stacking on top of each other, some normal sides, some upside down.

I would suggest, you bore a hole in the center of one hemisphere and put the camera there. And also make the light more ajustable - brighter and dimmer as required.

[@tagunprice9762]

Holy crap yes

[@erictheepic5019]

That wouldn't work. One-way mirrors are basically just tinted glass. The 'mirror' side needs to be very bright in comparison to the 'hidden' side, which is one limitation. The major issue is that it's transparent, so much if the light is lost upon each reflection, limiting the max number of reflections. Also, with no subject inside the sphere, there'd not be any interesting image to reflect.

What would be even more interesting, but probably more challenging, is to see what many tiny lights look like inside a very large spherical mirror

[@misternewoutlook5437]

Definitely a simulated window into the higher dimension. Helps you to imagine a 4D pencil drawing a sphere. When we draw a circle with a compass we are actually drawing it from the inside. I love this amazing experiment. I would suggest suspending the camera with a filament in the exact center.

[@akunekochan]

@@iBloodxHunter or maybe God (properties: Yin and Yan) enjoys turning inside out, splitting its awarenes (Yin), which swallows light that converges in a bright spot (Yan). That Spot of source energy (Yan) thats aware (Yin) can creates 'reality' by focussing light energy that is projected back, showing the conversion spot ('i am') an 'outside' reality that is percieved as completely 'seperate' from itself. Therefor experiencing shapes, dimensions, time and a lot of 'being tiny and powerless within a huge world, forgotten that its all happening within the split mind'. Or whatever, dude.

Is there a perfect mirror that doesn’t absorb any light? I read an article on it a perfect mirror but I’m not sure of the legitimacy of it

[@Sheevlord]

I'm pretty sure that "perfect mirror" is an abstract concept, just like a perfect black body. In reality every material that can interact with light will reflect and absorb some of it. Then again, superconductors exist, so maybe there could exist a material that reflects 100% light

[@danielquelapio5860]

No it defies conservation of energy

[@chrisawesome3091]

Sheevlord here’s a link I found for MIT students making a perfect mirror. The definition of a perfect mirror is one that reflects light perfectly with no absorption. I used the same example of superconductors in my head when trying to debate whether it was possible or not lol. www.extremetech.com/computing/162322-mit-creates-the-first-perfect-mirror Edit: they might not be students. My bad

[@chrisawesome3091]

Suprith S Banakar 10th B well its not related but since superconductors can exist and have zero resistance, why can’t a mirror exist with zero absorption. Superconductors are more of a comparison

[@chrisawesome3091]

Daniel Quelapio well the mirror wouldn’t use any of the light energy, and the light energy wouldn’t be destroyed. So output energy (which I guess would be whenever the sphere opens) would be equal to input energy of photons

I would have liked to see the view of the camera entering the already closed sphere. I'm not sure how the camera focus works but it would be interesting to use something that can hunt through the focus and pick up more reflections.

[@J_Abad]

The edges are not darker because of the number of reflections, it's just that there are less rays coming at an appropriate angle to reflect into your eyes when lit from outside. Put light inside the bowl pointing to one edge and you can see how now it's bright Edit: Also, the effect you see when closing the two halves is the camera crossing the focal point of the sphere.

[@jrjubach]

I've always wondered what it would be like if you did something similar except with an ellipsoid. Put the camera or light source at one focus, what happens at the other focus???

Hi! If you want to see infinity inside of those spherical mirror, you have to do it that way, one side of the spherical mirror must be a one way mirror, and the two sides must be attached to circle support with leds all over it. Once attached and the leds turn on you put your camera behind the one way mirror side, then you will capture infinity. Thanks for reading and thanks for your videos, peace, bye
