Corner reflector: In radar, In optics & Other examples

A corner reflector is a retroreflector consisting of three mutually perpendicular, intersecting flat reflective surfaces. It reverses the direction of an incoming wave by translation via reflections from the three orthogonal sides. The three intersecting surfaces often are triangles (forming a tetrahedron) or may have square shapes. Radar corner…
