Warped ideas

This article presents a detailed mathematical analysis of a warped reflection observed on a mirror surface at Rome airport. The author derives formulas to relate the viewing angle, mirror inclination, and ceiling distance to the apparent distortion, ultimately simplifying to a linear approximation for small angles. The goal is to reconstruct the mirror's surface shape from the observed warping of a regular ceiling pattern. The content is purely technical, involving geometry and physics, and is related to computer vision or optics, which falls under IT/TECHNOLOGY.
