Patent 9435955 was granted and assigned to Optinvent on September, 2016 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
An optical guide comprises an injection zone intended to inject into the optical guide a light signal and an extraction zone intended to provide the light signal after transport by the optical guide. The optical guide comprises, in a superposed manner, at least two guidance elements. In a zone situated between the injection zone and the extraction zone, the guidance elements are partially separated from one another by a semi-reflective coating of length, in the direction or propagation of the light signal in the optical guide, dependent on a minimum angle of incidence of the light signal and on the thickness of at least one of the guidance elements that the semi-reflective coating separates.
