What are periscopes?
Periscopes are optical devices that allow you to look at objects that are not in the straight line of vision. It usually consists of a metal tube with mirrors within it usually tilted 45 degrees as shown below. Thus the object around a corner can be viewed. Used mostly in submarines.
