Assume a flat one square foot vertical plate attached 6 feet up, outside on a wall.
Dozens of yards away are various solar reflectors angled to reflect sunlight onto that plate.
Problem is, the plate requires to be only struck straight on at a 0 degree angle of incidence.
And, all the reflected sources are striking it at some other angle up to 45 degrees off center.
Is there any lens or dome or reflective funnel arrangement, or something else altogether, that
could be put in front of the plate to take all those different angled incoming sunlight sources
and align them all, to next be exiting it to strike the plate behind it straight on at a 0 degree
angle of incidence?
Thank you for any thoughts or suggestions.
