  • 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.

  • mõõtevahend, mis peegeldab valguse tagasi valgusallikale täpselt samas valgussuunas
  • device that reflects light back to the light source exactly along the same light direction
  • passive device designed to reflect light back parallel to the incident direction over range of incident angles
pöördpeegeldi preferred
Usage examples
  • Tüüpiline pöördpeegeldi või tagasipeegeldi on nt klaasist kuupreflektor, nurgakuupreflektor ja erimaterjalist poleeritud kera jne, mis on kasutusel mitmesugustes rakendustes, nt lasertajurina maamõõtmisel, maapinnapõhisel kaugusmõõtmisel, satelliitside ja kosmosesõidukite dokkimisel jne.

Good to know
  • Helkur peegeldab üldiselt valgust mitmes suunas.
retroreflector preferred
Usage examples
  • These devices are, for example, glass prism reflectors, corner cube reflectors.
  • Typical retroreflectors are the cat's-eye, the cube corner and spheres of special matrrial. Retroreflectors are cooperaive targets. For certain systems, for example laser radar, the retroreflector will possibly be a cooperative target such as a polished sphere.
