Driver’s side mirror without a blind spot
PAGE TITLEOverviewPAGE SUMMARY Traditional car mirrors on a driver’s side are flat, providing a narrow field of view ranging from 15 to 17 degrees. This leaves a significant area behind the car invisible to the driver because it is not covered by the side or rear-view mirrors. This area, known as the blind spot, can be made visible using a spherical...

Reflective surface producing a non-reversed, undistorted, perspective view
PAGE TITLEOverviewPAGE SUMMARY The invention relates to a reflective surface substantially perpendicular to a vector field described by the equation: W(x,y,z)=T(proj(x,v,z))−(x,v,z)+proj(x,v,z)−(x,v,z)∥T(proj(x,y,z))−(x,y,z)∥ ∥proj(x,y,z)−(x,y,z)∥ and a method for forming the reflective surface. The reflective surface is capable...
