After reading a book called The King in the Window, I have become obessed with getting a true mirror. If you want to see a better look at a true mirror go to http://www.truemirror.com! They definitely take the cake!

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

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.

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

@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.

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.

Haha Kook.

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

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

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

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.
