 WHAT IS A PERISCOPE
A periscope is an instrument for observation
over,around and through an object, obstacle or
condition that prevents direct line of sight
observation (spying) from an observer’s current
position.in its simplest form , it consists of an
outer case with mirrors at each end set parallel to
each other at a 45 degree angle . this from of
periscope ,with addition of two simple lenses served
for observation purpose in the trenches during World
War 1 .

● Military personnel also use periscope in some

gun turrets and in armoured vehicles
 The history of
Periscope
Inventors
The inventors are own to be Jules Carpenter
and Sarah Mather ( the official periscope
was known to be invented in 1845)
Jules Carpenter
● Although they are known to be the
first inventors there were other
inventors who perfected their ideas
Such as this Article stating that :

In 1854, Hippolyte Marie-Davy invented

the first naval periscope , consisting of a
vertical tube with two small mirrors fixed at
each end at 45 degrees, Simon lake used
periscopes in his submarines in 1902 . and Sir
Howard Grubb perfected the device in World War
1 as mentioned before .Morgan Robertson claims
to have tried to patent the periscope he Sarah Mather
described a submarine using a periscope in his
work

OVERVIEW
how to make a simple
periscope
 Step 1 Step 2
Cut the tops off two clean milk cartons.
Find two small mirrors the same size.,
● A long, sturdy cardboard tube could also work
● You may be able to find small mirrors at a craft or
art supply store, or from an online store.

Step 3 Step 4
Tape the two cartons together. Use packing Cut a hole on one side just big enough for a
tape or another strong tape to tape the open mirror.
ends of the cartons together
STEP 5 STEP 6
Insert a mirror facing the hole at a 45º Cut a hole at the other end, facing the
angle. opposite direction..
