LIGHT SYSTEM FOR BUILDING STRUCTURES

摘要

There is provided embedded light guiding parts that allow for light, signals or live images to appear on its surface. Specifically there is provided a light system having an array of rods made in a hard transparent or translucent polymer material embedded in a building material. The tapered rods are held together by a back-bone that connects the bases of the tapered rods to achieve an evenly distributed array of tapered rods, preferably having the same orientation, wherein the rods are adapted to receive a light input at the base ends and to transmit the light output at the front ends of the rods.

1. A light system for building structures comprising:
an array of rods, preferably tapered rods, made in a hard transparent or translucent polymer material, said rods each having a light receiving base end and a light emitting front end, said rods held together by a back-bone that connects the base ends of the rods to achieve an array of rods, wherein the rods are adapted to receive a light input at the base ends and to transmit the light output to the front ends of the rods; and a building material;wherein the array of rods is embedded in the building material with the proviso that the base ends and the front ends of the rods are not covered with building material.
