reflecting device
  • vahend inimese või muu objekti märgatavuse suurendamiseks pimeda ajal sellelt vahendilt valgusallika poole tagasi peegelduva valguse abil, mis on nähtav lähitulede valgusvihus vähemalt 150 meetrit ja kaugtulede valgusvihus vähemalt 300 meetrit
  • reflex-reflector - a device used to indicate the presence of a vehicle by reflection of light emanating from a light source unconnected with that vehicle
  • a device intended to produce reflex reflection (...) , at least for a limited range of angles of incidence of a light beam. It may comprise one or more retro-reflecting optical units, for example, corner reflectors or special lens units of glass or plastic. Such devices may be installed generally on unlighted buoys or other navigational aids to increase the range at which they may be seen at night.

Usage examples
  • Every load on a vehicle shall be so arranged and, if necessary, stowed as to prevent it from: ... masking lights, including stop lights and direction-indicators, reflex reflectors, registration numbers and the distinguishing sign of the State of registration with which, under this Convention or under domestic legislation, the vehicle is required to be equipped, or masking signals given by arms in accordance with Article 14, paragraph 3, or Article 17, paragraph 2, of this Convention.

Usage examples
  • Loads projecting beyond the front, rear or sides of the vehicle shall be clearly marked in all cases where their projection might not be noticed by the drivers of other vehicles; at night, a white light and a white reflecting device shall be used for such marking at the front and a red light and a red reflecting device at the rear.

Usage examples
  • Peegelteleskoop, mida vahel nimetatakse ka Newtoni teleskoobiks, peegeldab valgust nõguspeegli abil, võimaldades niiviisi näha teleskoobiga tegelikke värve.

reflector preferred
Usage examples
  • Reflectors are used not only to examine the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum but also to explore both the shorter- and longer-wavelength regions adjacent to it (i.e., the ultraviolet and the infrared).
reflecting telescope
Usage examples
  • Isaac Newton built his reflecting telescope as a proof for his theory that white light is composed of a spectrum of colours.
