Convex mirrors

Convex mirrors are curved mirrors that bulge outward, resembling the shape of a portion of a sphere. They reflect light in a way that produces a wider field of view, which makes them useful for observing larger areas. Commonly found in vehicle side mirrors and security settings, convex mirrors create smaller images of objects, making them appear farther away. Although the images are diminished, they provide critical perspective and help prevent accidents by allowing users to see what’s behind them or around corners. Overall, convex mirrors enhance safety and awareness in various settings.
