A light source useful for a wide variety of lighting applications such as signage, architectural or automotive designs, as well as cosmetic and/or functional features for other products can be created by combining a light collector comprising a sheet of material having a fluorescent substance incorporated therein and an optical element juxtaposed adjacent the collector. Light incident on the collector induces fluorescence that is trapped by total internal reflection, concentrated, and radiated from an edge of the collector. The size of collector plate with respect to its thickness is such that it provides an intensified image along its edge that is readily visible during both daytime and nighttime. The optical element modifies the distribution of light output from an edge of the collector. The optical element is preferably configured to decrease divergence of light emitted from the edge. The optical element may also direct the light emitted from the collector above or below the plane of ...

A display system comprises an optical waveguide and a light engine. The light engine generates multiple input beams which form a virtual image. An incoupling grating of the optical waveguide couples each beam into an intermediate grating of the waveguide, in which that beam is guided onto multiple splitting regions. The intermediate grating splits that beam at the splitting regions to provide multiple substantially parallel versions of that beam. Those multiple versions are coupled into an exit grating of the waveguide, in which the multiple versions are guided onto multiple exit regions. The exit grating diffracts the multiple versions of that beam outwardly. The multiple input beams thus cause multiple exit beams to exit the waveguide which form a version of the virtual image. The incoupling and intermediate gratings are substantially contiguous, separated by no more than 100 micrometres in width along a common border. 1. A display system comprising:an optical waveguide having an incoupling grating, an intermediate grating and an exit grating; anda light engine configured to generate multiple input beams, each beam being substantially collimated and directed to the incoupling grating in a unique inward direction, whereby the multiple input beams form a virtual image;wherein the intermediate and exit grating have widths substantially larger than the beams' diameters;wherein the incoupling grating is arranged to couple each beam into the intermediate grating, in which that beam is guided onto multiple splitting regions of the intermediate grating in a direction along the width of the intermediate grating;wherein the intermediate grating is arranged to split that beam at the splitting regions to provide multiple substantially parallel versions of that beam which are coupled into the exit grating, in which the multiple versions are guided onto multiple exit regions of the exit grating, the exit regions lying in a direction along the width of the exit grating;wherein ...
