An erect image, in optics, is one that appears right-side up. An erect image is formed when both rays intersect each other at a certain point. It is an image in which directions are the same as those in the object, in contrast to an inverted image. It is one of the property of image formed in a plane mirror.
In optics, an image is defined as the collection of focus points of light rays coming from an object. A real image is the collection of focus points actually made by converging rays, while a virtual image is the collection of focus points made by extensions of diverging rays.
A real image occurs where rays converge, whereas a virtual image occurs where rays only appear to diverge. Real images can be produced by concave mirrors and converging lenses, only if the object is placed further away from the mirror/lens than the focal point, and this real image is inverted.
