Dove prism is a type of reflective prism which is used to invert an image. A beam of light entering one of the sloped faces of the prism undergoes total internal reflection from the inside of the longest (bottom) face and emerges from the opposite sloped face. Images passing through the prism are flipped, and because only one reflection takes place, the image is inverted but not laterally transposed.This property means they can rotate a beam of light by an arbitrary angle, making them useful in beam rotators, which have applications in fields such as interferometry, astronomy, and pattern recognition.

Anamorphic Prism An anamorphic prism pair is a pair of prisms which is usually used for reshaping the profile of a laser beam. For example, the elliptical beam from a laser diode can be transformed into a beam with circular cross-section, as is needed for many applications, by ...
Optical Prism, a transparent object surrounded by two planes that intersect but are not parallel to each other, is used to split light or disperse light beams. An optical prism is a polyhedron made of transparent materials (such as optical glass prism, optical crystal prism, ...
Dove prisms have an unusual and very interesting characteristic , if you look through the prism and rotate it around a longitudinal axis, the image rotates through twice the angle through which the dove prism itself rotates. For optimal peformance, use dove prisms with ...
