A simple periscope can be made of basically two mirrors and a pipe.
The 1st mirror is set at 45 degrees and inverts the image. The 2nd is set below and inverts the image again so you get a proper image.

It's used for seeing around where you can't usually see (like a submarine seeing above water).
More complex periscopes are made of many lenses and prisms, or advanced fiber optics, which can give you many more options. There is also an eyepiece, a wheel for rotating the tube, gearing, and depending on the type of periscope, an objective, which would be where you see out... which could be set with a lens, a camera, just be a simple part of the tube, or something much more complex depending on how the periscope is made.
Earth is typically divided into four main parts: the lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), and biosphere (living organisms). Each part plays a unique role in the Earth's ecosystem and overall function.
The four main parts of a city typically include residential areas, commercial areas (such as downtown or business districts), industrial zones, and recreational or open spaces (like parks or green areas). Each part serves a specific function in supporting the daily life and economy of the city.
The tilt of Earth's axis causes the Sun's light to shine more or less directly on different parts of the Earth as it orbits around the Sun. This tilt is responsible for the changing seasons and varying lengths of daylight throughout the year.
The Earth consists of the core, mantle, and crust. The core is composed mostly of iron and nickel and generates the magnetic field. The mantle is a semisolid layer that transfers heat through convection. The crust is the outermost solid layer where we find oceans, continents, and other landforms.
The primary function of a bottle is to contain liquids, such as water or beverages. The secondary function of a bottle is to provide a means for easy storage, transport, and consumption of the liquid it holds.
The periscope has several parts: the ocular lenses, the mirror or prism, inversion/reversion prisms, relay lenses, another mirror or prism, and objective lenses.
Basically to see around corners, do it twice and you have the device that's common on submarines.
a diagram of a periscope
someone discovered the periscope
A periscope uses energy to function by using mechanical energy to raise and lower the viewing device, and by using optical energy to transmit and reflect light to enable viewing in a different direction than the physical position of the viewer. Electric energy may also be used to power any motorized components in the periscope.
well there really is no antonym that i know of for periscope because a periscope is an object.
