The invention relates to a screen comprising a visible surface (1) which is divided up into pixels (2). The pixels (2) thereof respectively emit light and are connected to a light distributor by means of optical waveguides (3). The light distributor has rotating light sources (10) disposed on a rotor (20) and arranged at a distance from an axis of rotation (22). The light emitted from said light sources is radiated to the receptors (7) of a coupling device (5) located at the ends of the wave guides (3) and reaches the visible surface (1) of the screen via the individual waveguides (3), thereby producing a visible picture for an observer, composed of individual pixels (2). The disadvantage of conventional screens is that the design thereof is necessarily large while displaying weaknesses in terms of contrast and light. The aim of the invention is to cause the rotating light sources arranged in the light distributor to emit light parallel to the axis of rotation (22) and radiate it to the receptors (7) of the coupling device (5), one particular advantage thereof being a flat design.
A display screen with a visible surface (1) divided in pixels (2), with the pixels of said visible surface each emitting light and being connected with a light distributor that comprises rotating light sources (10) arranged on a rotor (20), the light sources being arranged with a spacing from the axis of rotation (22) and their emitted light being radiated into receptors (7) of a coupling device (5), said receptors being arranged on the ends of the optical wave guides (3), said light being received via the individual optical wave guides (3) on the visible surface (1) of the display screen, and a picture is produced there that is visible to the viewer and assembled from the individual pixels (2), characterized in that the rotating light sources (10) arranged in the light distributor emit light parallel with the axis of rotation (22) and into the receptors (7) of the coupling device (5).
