List of all members.


Detailed Description

spherical_mirror is a reflector which focuses.  
This is a paraxial approximation, and only makes sense for flairly 'flat' mirrors, for which the intersection can be computed by planar geometry.
Since base_lens (q.v.) also handles optics with different x&y strengths, this can represent cylinders and ellipses, too.
