It is easily conceived as proper reflection from those parts of the surface that deviate from the average. Why would the wet road appear to the driver to be darker than the dry road. Specular reflection is the mirrorlike reflection at the airsurface interface, and it occurs when the incident light is reflected from a smooth surface. Describe the difference between diffuse reflection and regular or specular reflection. A dry road is a diffuse reflector, while a wet road is not. The amount of light reflected by an object, and how it is reflected, is highly dependent upon the smoothness or texture of the surface.

However, the ambient component can easily be removed by subtracting an observation without the hidden object. Both specular and diffuse spectral data were further processed according to the equation. Diffuse reflection the radiation contributing to a diffuse reflection spectrum is typically spread over a range of angles and so cannot be collected efficiently with accessories designed to measure specular reflection. Specular reflection, also known as regular reflection, is the mirrorlike reflection of waves, such as light, from a surface.
The law of specular reflection is valid for any value of the angle of incidence i, not only for the 45 angle reported in the diagram. Diffuse reflection is the reflection of light or other waves or particles from a surface such that a ray incident on the surface is scattered at many angles rather than at just one angle as in the case of specular reflection. A specular reflection is what you get from a polished surface, or mirror. This algorithm uses color and polarization simultaneously, to obtain new constraints on the reflection components.
