   That is really amazing.

   I bet it would be EXTREMELY odd to look in to this thing and try and comb your hair or something after a lifetime of reversing mirrors.

   I want one. I agree it would be very odd to look into one.

   Wow. Would love to have one but NOT tell anyone about it. See how freaked out everyone gets. Heh!

   Well this not really new in terms of concept. True mirror has been around since 80's

   Haha Kook.

   Seriously, my mind is blown on this concept. I did not know that was even possible!

   This is truly a neato post.

   I like #2 for practical reasons: widescreen driver's-side mirror! I'm always nervous about missing drivers in my blind spot(s), ever since a high-school fender-bender. This should be standard equipment in all cars.

   @GeneAriani. The mirror shown at the site that you link to appears to be a right-angle "pair" with the crease smoothed out. Go to the "to order" page to see other samples. Andrew Hicks' mirror is not a right-angle mirror.

   for once, something neat..
   a lot more work and this could be used to create invisibility cloaks surely.

    How is this different from truemirror GeneAriani pointed out? I saw on these in their old nyc show years ago and it was strange. Their site claims the method was patented in 1887.

    It probably has one sweet spot where it works, and all other angles look like the Hall of Mirrors.
