ImageReflect[image]

reverses image by top-bottom mirror reflection.

ImageReflect[image,side]

reverses image by reflecting it so that the specified side goes to the opposite side.

ImageReflect[image,side1side2]

reflects image so that side1 is interchanged with side2.

ImageReflect[video,…]

reflects frames of video.

Details

  • ImageReflect yields an image with pixel values corresponding to a reflected image.
  • ImageReflect[image,…] reflects image in a line that goes through its center.
  • ImageReflect works with arbitrary 2D and 3D images.
  • Possible side specifications are: Top, Bottom, Left, Right.
  • Additional side specifications in 3D are: Front, Back.
  • Use ImageReflect[image,All] to mirror along all sides, top to bottom, left to right and front to back.
