  • sepultura, on 10/11/2007, -14/+696*Sigh* That wasn't as great as I'd expected. I was waiting for my face to blow up or something.
    • doctorfungi, on 10/11/2007, -8/+175Actually I kind of expected a really bright light... surprised me.
    • PsychoticClown, on 10/11/2007, -4/+256Must've been really boring that day in the office.
    • Wonderkind, on 10/11/2007, -9/+312I was gonna try this once but I was afraid my scanner would get sucked into an alternate universe.
    • Cornloaf, on 10/11/2007, -9/+77@sepultura

      That's what kinda happens when you put your face on a scanner :

      Dude, you've got a weird shaped head! :-)
    • Philluminati, on 10/11/2007, -5/+23Can someone actually explain this properly?

      I'd expect a white image, or perhaps a silver one. Why is the mirror black exactly. is it a reflection of the black components in the scanner or what? His explanation doesn't make sense.
    • vdog, on 10/11/2007, -3/+52From the comments:

      nyctosf:"Seems like the mechanism is not that "The light from the scanning device is reflected back", but rather that the light emitter is positioned an inch or two away from the reader, presumably in order to cut down on glare on shiny surfaces.

      The light bounces off the mirror and misses the reader entirely, except where the scratches are (which do diffuse the light).

      If the light and read heads were exactly aligned then you would expect to see all light."
    • EBFoxbat, on 10/11/2007, -40/+1It happens because of how a scanner works. There's really nothing special there.
    • pastaq, on 10/11/2007, -8/+90Now the real question! If a mirror were traveling at the speed of light would it double the speed of light or reflect nothing? hmm....
    • Nok1, on 10/11/2007, -9/+25@pastaq
      No it wouldn't, since the speed of light is the fastest that anything can go. In classical physics, if you were traveling in a car, and shot a bullet from the front of the car, the velocity of the bullet would be related to the sum of the two velocities (car and bullet), Now if you had a rocket traveling nearly the speed of light (approaching it, since to accelerate something to the speed of light would take infinite energy..) the physics gets "fuzzy" and is related more to quantum mechanics rather that classical physics - please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_light#Constant_velocity_from_all_inertial_reference_frames for a more thorough explanation.

    • dn11, on 10/11/2007, -7/+1i was expecting a portal into another dimension or something
    • ReaperUnreal, on 10/11/2007, -4/+13@Philluminati
      Actually his explanation is wrong. What's actually happening is that his scanner is using a CMOS sensor. When a CMOS sensor is overloaded with light it goes black. If his scanner had a CCD sensor you would see all white.
    • combatchuck, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8The theory of relativity means that, regardless of your position or motion relative to the light, it's always traveling at the same speed. If you were traveling at 99.9% the speed of light and shot a laser in front of you, it would still travel at the speed of light. You wouldn't even be able to measure a difference because of time dilation. Whether you're going 50 miles an hour or 5 trillion miles an hour, time dilation affects you. The faster you move, the slower time will go for you.

    • TheMidnight, on 10/11/2007, -3/+7I wonder what happens if you scan a convex or concave mirror...
    • texpundit, on 10/11/2007, -10/+2"Who can honestly say they've never done that?"

      I actually had an ex-GF that emailed me scans of *ahem* various body parts while I was on tour because her digital camera was broke. *L*
    • Negyxo, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1@pastaq
      My guess would be that the mirror would reflect dimly/and or distorted based on how close you are to the speed of light you are traveling and how straight your path is.Or maybe when you get very close to light speed the mirror would have an event horizon for the reflection of the light similar to a black hole and seeing the reflected light would be dependent on how close you are to the mirror.
    • Buttercup, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3@pastaq & Nok1 - shouldn't the light reflected from the mirror appear to be traveling away from the mirror (from the mirror's perspective) at the speed of light, while still obeying the speed of light from another viewer's perspective? isn't that one of the basises of special relativity? that light _always_ (except in cases like inside radioactive Caesium) goes the speed of light from the viewer's perspective?
    • specialK16, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5"Actually his explanation is wrong. What's actually happening is that his scanner is using a CMOS sensor. When a CMOS sensor is overloaded with light it goes black. If his scanner had a CCD sensor you would see all white."

      Ohh, the same with a digital camera pointed toward the sun; the sun spot goes black. Interesting. Is that harmful to the equipment?
    • skyfire1, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2LOL @ the flickr comments. Those people never cease to humor me.
    • kcpwnsgman, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4"If you look really closely you can see the alternative dimension it created. It is just really dark there though."

      thats what they said about Doom 3
    • xtinxkanx, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0I was expecting bloody mary to come out
    • kiiwii, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I think what's more interesting is this experiment where someone turned a scanner into a digital camera:

      http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/tech/scanner.html

      Some of the pictures taken are pretty interesting, if there's any movement as the picture is taken the results are pretty crazy.
    • aaromon, on 10/11/2007, -5/+0What a waste of toner.
    • hockey, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Looks like it created an alternate universe full of dark matter.
    • laguar, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1"Actually his explanation is wrong. What's actually happening is that his scanner is using a CMOS sensor. When a CMOS sensor is overloaded with light it goes black. If his scanner had a CCD sensor you would see all white."

      Actually your explanation is wrong. Scanners are designed so that reflected light does not reach the sensor. This allows glossy objects such as photos to be scanned correctly. Only diffuse reflections reach the sensor (of which there are none from a mirror so it appears black).
    • Hardcase, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2"Now the real question! If a mirror were traveling at the speed of light would it double the speed of light or reflect nothing? hmm...."

      Doppler, baby, doppler. The mirror will reflect at the speed of light, but the reflected waves will be compressed (or rarefracted, depending up on whether it's coming or going). If it's going straight away, it will essentially reflect nothing, if it's coming straight at you, it will reflect nothing. Going away, the wavelength of the light is infinite - coming toward you, the wavelength becomes zero. At some other direction, the light from the reflection will be shifted according to the relative approaching or departing velocity. No matter, what, though, it's reflecting at the speed of light.

      It's that old red-shift, blue-shift thing.
    • Nok1, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1@buttercup
      Read the post above me, he nailed it.

      For the lazy:
      -It would be impossible to accelerate an object to the speed of light
      -The light is always perceived as traveling the speed of light by any observer (excluding special relatively)
      -With a mirror already traveling at the speed of light, hardcase mentioned doppler effect and red and blue shifts.

      I think that just 'bout covers it.
    • MauiMac, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2This is lame!
  • Hepburn82, on 10/11/2007, -8/+23It figures, I suppose.
  • deployroy, on 10/11/2007, -10/+68I do those kind of bizzare experiments when im on LSD too, so fun...
    • KMye, on 10/11/2007, -3/+175Pointing the video camera perfectly at the TV screen you've hooked the camera's output into is still my favorite...
    • idiotwithastick, on 10/11/2007, -7/+28With the video camera thing, do you get an infinite tunnel or something?

      I would just do it myself, but I don't have a video camera.
    • WZot, on 10/11/2007, -4/+46Infinite tunnel, yeah.
    • chingy1788, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9There is a lift with mirrors on 3 sides, in that case you get an infinite tunnel when you look at the 2 sides parallel to each other
      I've done it with a camera but its no way as good as 2 mirrors parallel
    • LexisNexis, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17If you use a two way mirror on one side you get a front on view of the infinite tunnel effect instead of looking from an angle.
    • cruzlee, on 10/11/2007, -0/+21@chingy

      The problem is that your head is always in the way of that perfect tunnel. The camera + tv solution eliminates that problem.
    • BomTerrigan, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18Try tilting the camera while zooming in on any onscreen graphics like the time or date, you get some trippy colorful spinning *****, looks really cool.
    • KMye, on 10/11/2007, -1/+14If you get the camera positioned just right, you get as close as you can get easily get to a pure visual feedback loop. If you darken the room well enough, you have to start it with a lighter, glowstick or some other light source. Lotsa fun...

  • scarystuff, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6about the video camera pointing at the TV set.. put the videocamera upside down (or the TV, but it might not survive for long) just a little ofset, like 179 or 181 degrees, make the room totally dark and turn on a match in front of the TV. If u done it right, u will now see the most amazing psychedelic lightshow that will go on forever and ever after u put out the match.

  • counterplex, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3I actually figured it would be all black since it would filter out anything that was pure white. This is to cancel out the portion of the scanner's bed that isn't covered by the paper you're trying to scan. Not sure if that was the real explanation but it seemed plausible to me.

      "ophello says:

      The light from a scanner hits images at a 45 degree angle -- which is why you see the scratches, and not white light.

      Think about it: scan a glossy book. If the light was shining directly up, it wouldn't be able to scan anything. the light from the shiny glossy surface would reflect back into the detector.

      Also: there's a piece of glass in front of the scanning mechanism itself. If the light were projected directly upwards and directly back into the detector, the reflection would ruin the image.

      The detector and the light source are not in line with each other. it is no surprise that a scan of a mirror yields dark results. You're seeing a reflection of the inside of the scanner, which is quite dark (as expected)."

      ...right... so what if I scanned a mirror at a 45° angle?

  • Lorwik, on 10/11/2007, -4/+1What happens when you scan a rock? Nothing. I know, I was expecting it to morph into a monster or something.
    • ragsmaloy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Anti-rock perhaps? like rock but squidgier, don't bring the two forms together though or you're gonna be in some kind of explosive trouble
  • emit, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Here's one for you: Why does the image in a mirror appear left-right changed, but not up-down? :-)
    • derram, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4It has more to do with how your brain perceives a person standing in front of you and less to do with a mirror. Ya know, expectations and what not.
    • crckr, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1derram got dug down?

      My guess is, that most people really don't know the answer and won't figure it out in a lifetime and this makes every attempt of explanation look stoopid.

      Anyway: The mirror makes an image that we interpret as seeing ourselves after a 180 degree turn. But wait! That guy must have undergone a hand-change operation.
      If we couldn't turn horizontally, but only vertically, we would think that the guy in the mirror has had his up/downside swapped, since he isn't standing on his head as we would expect after a vertical turn.
      But in that case we would be wondering why it won't swap the left/right sides.

      Now I look stupid, too. What a feeling!
    • screensnot, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2"Why does the image in a mirror appear left-right changed, but not up-down?"

      The key word there is _appear_.

      My wife has a black eye on her left, and the right side of her lower lip is swelled.

      When she is standing in front of me, her shiner is on my right, and her fat lip is on my left.

      When I turn her around and look over her head to see her image in a mirror, her fat lip is both on my right and hers, and her shiner is on our left.

      When she is hanging from her ankles and I am facing her, the shiner is on both my left and hers. Yet, the top of her head is facing down while mine is facing up.

      When she is hanging from her ankles and I am flagellating her ass while I look at her in a mirror, Her shiner is on my right, and the top of her head is facing down.

      It's all in the perspective. If you think it thru, there is nothing funny about how things are reversed in a mirror.
  • voxiso, on 10/11/2007, -10/+1And who is the guy with no life that done this?
    • stryker2you, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8The same guy that has no life making these types of comments on digg.

      Yes this applies to me too....
    • burke, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1What's wrong with all you people commenting about this guy having too much time on his hands?! You're on Digg, commenting about how people have too much time on their hands. If anyone has too much time on their hands, I'm pretty damn sure it's you (and me, I guess...). At least this guy is trying something interesting. You're just flaming.

  • MisterFlaut, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Yep. Everyone and their mother did this about, oh, 10 years ago when scanners were cool and hip.

    Old news.
