Infinity mirrors

Post by Alexsivov »

Hello,

Can the infinity mirror works with images inside the box instead of lights? How will the image be seen if no light is in the box?

Thank you.

The infinity mirror requires lighting inside the box to work. However, you could try mounting a semitransparent image (like something drawn on a projector transparency sheet) inside the box along with the LEDs, and you might see reflections of the image.
