Math profs driver's-side mirror: no blind spot
"A side-by-side comparison of a standard flat driver's side mirror with the
mirror designed by Dr. R. Andrew Hicks, mathematics professor at Drexel University. With minimal distortion, Hicks's mirror shows a much wider field of view. Hicks's mirror has a field of view of about 45 degrees, compared to 15 to 17 degrees of view in a flat mirror." Math: Is there anything it can't do? http://phys.org/news/2012-06-math-pr...or-patent.html Of course it is illegal for the mirror to be installed by a car manufacturer. I blame the mirror lobby. |
