reflect — 3D optics op

• Data kinds: vector × normals → normals

• Call: import match3d; match3d.reflect(d, n) (or ops3d.get("reflect"))

Usage

Specularly reflect the incident direction d at a surface with normal n. r = d − 2(d·n)n.

References (sample data, literature)

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).

• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.

Runnable examples (verified samples that actually call this op)

• sensor_seg — py -3.11 examples_3d/sensor_seg.py

• snell_refraction — py -3.11 examples_3d/snell_refraction.py

Ops the type connects to (they accept normals as input)
