An Eye Spy Device, Build A Periscope. Content : 2 T shaped cardboard piece, 4 square cardboard pieces, 4 Mirror pieces, 1 PVC pipe , 2 big rectangular piece, 1 single rectangular piece, 1 small rectangular piece with circular hole, 1 small rectangular piece with rectangular hole, 2 long rectangular piece with grooves at both end, 1 wooden slit, Product Manual
HOW IT WORKS OBSERVATION: As soon as you see in the eye piece you can see the image of an object. View the image after removing and inserting the slit one by one. You will notice that there is no change in the appearance of image. Hence we can say that even if there is obstacle, it does not effect on visualization. Magical right! WHY: This is due to reflection of light in a straight line. In this project we have arranged the mirrors at 45 degree angle. The reflection of the object falls on first mirror which gets reflected and falls on second mirror which after getting reflected falls on third mirror. Simultaneously the reflected image of object from third mirror falls on forth mirror which we can see through the PVC pipe. In this periscope we can see the image even after inserting the slit doesn't comes in the path of the reflection of light.
The framework is made of Medium Density Fiber (MDF). The parts get cut by a Laser machine. Assemble the parts using Interlocking system i.e. one has to engage its parts with each other by overlapping or by the fitting together of projections and recesses. Please be gentle, careful while assembling. This product is designed for a single use. Apply your creativity while assembling. Assembly manual is provided with the kit.
The project is for demonstration and informational purposes only. All of Junior Scientist products are unique and handmade. We work by designs and Endeavour to create like products. However the very nature of being individually designed by hand gives raw finishing of the projects since it should look that students have created on its own.
