Abstract
Display regions each include a plurality of reflection surfaces. The reflection surfaces are arranged at an average pitch of 1 μm and 300 μm inclusive in a direction in which the reflection surfaces are arranged. The display regions of each display region group include display regions that differ from one another in the normal direction of the reflection surfaces. Each display region group is configured to form, in the associated observation direction, an image that is unique to the display region group and composed of the image elements formed by the display regions of the display region group.
Claims6
A display body, comprising:
- a display surface including one or more display region groups, each including a plurality of display regions, wherein
- each display region includes a plurality of reflection elements, each having a first reflection surface that is configured to reflect light incident on the display surface toward an area including a corresponding one of observation directions that are associated with the respective display region groups,
- the reflection elements are arranged in a first direction and extend in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction,
- each reflection element further includes a second reflection surface, which is an inclined surface connected to the corresponding first reflection surface and the display surface in a cross section along a third direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction,
- the first reflection surfaces are arranged at an average pitch of between 1 μm and 300 μm inclusive in a direction in which the first reflection surfaces are arranged,
- in each display region, the first reflection surfaces have an identical normal direction associated with the display region so that the first reflection surfaces of the display region are configured to form a single image element associated with the display region,
- the display regions of each display region group include display regions that differ from one another in the normal direction of the first reflection surfaces, and
- each display region group is configured to form, in the associated observation direction, an image that is unique to the display region group and composed of the image elements formed by the display regions of the display region group.
