DISPLAY ELEMENT, DISPLAY INSTRUMENT, DISPLAY METHOD, USE OF AN OPTICAL FIBRE AND VEHICLE

摘要

A display element can be used to represent bars of variable length. The display instrument may have a plurality of light chambers which are disposed adjacent to one another and in each case have a light barrier to the respective adjacent light chamber. The light chambers each have an optical waveguide. The light barrier is formed from one side of the optical waveguide which is impermeable to light or only partially light-permeable. Moreover, a corresponding display instrument, vehicle and display method may use the optical waveguide and the display element.
