Lighting system for accenting regions of a layer and associated methods

摘要

A system and method for accenting regions of a layer including a lighting system including a plurality of light sources operable to emit polychromatic light and a layer having two or more regions configured to diffusively scatter light within a wavelength range while absorbing light not within the wavelength range. The regions may be configured to represent recognizable characters or images, and may form a sequence. The lighting system may highlight the regions individually or simultaneously. The layer may be attachable to a surface and may further include non-highlighted regions. The system may also include appliqués applied to a surface and a cover layer transparent to certain wavelengths of light that the appliqués scatter.

1. A system for accenting a region of a layer comprising:
a lighting system comprising a plurality of light sources; and a layer configured to be applied to a surface of a structure, the layer comprising a first region having a first surface scatter profile and a second region having a second surface scatter profile; wherein the light emitted by the plurality of light sources combines to form a polychromatic combined light; wherein the first surface scatter profile is configured to diffusively scatter a combined light including a first wavelength; wherein the second surface scatter profile is configured to diffusively scatter a combined light including a second wavelength; and wherein the combined light is at least one of a first polychromatic light including the first wavelength and excluding the second wavelength and a second polychromatic light including the second wavelength and excluding the first wavelength.
