In a kaleidoscope containing two mirrors, an intricate design of wedge reflections fills the entire circular background. The closer we join the mirrors in the tube, the better the symmetrical patterns we will get at the end. In a kaleidoscope, each reflected image is symmetrical about the image next to it. This can be attributed to the principle of symmetry according to this principle, if a line is drawn through the centre of a symmetrical object, it divides the object into two exactly equivalent halves they will be like mirror images of each other. We obtain stunning and intricate patterns with ordinary beads, buttons, bangles, and sprinkles within a kaleidoscope. Thus, the large the slice, the lesser the reflections and smaller the slice, the greater the reflections and so on.Īlthough the image, even in a simple kaleidoscope, is way more beautiful than toppings on a pizza. Thus, the final image consists of eight reflections of this slice. Scottish inventor David Brewster invented the kaleidoscope on \(10^\). By rotating the tube, which is lined with reflecting surfaces consisting of coloured pieces of glass, symmetrical patterns are obtained. This helps to create symmetrical patterns at the end of the kaleidoscope when viewed from the other end. It consists of two or more reflecting surfaces, and these surfaces are tilted with respect to each other at a certain specific angle. A kaleidoscope is a toy for kids that is both fun and interesting.
