Backlit static display on foam board using light piping pegs as highlighters
Abstract:
A display for displaying an image to a viewer, capable of highlighting specific locations selected by a user. This display comprises: a) a punchable layer such as a foam board having a first surface and a second surface, b) an image affixed to the first surface of the punchable layer. The punchable layer and the image form a sandwich dubbed display cover which is partially transparent and is observed by a viewer located on the image side of the display cover, c) a light source illuminating the second surface of the punchable layer, d) a piercing means for enabling the user to punch at least one hole into the punchable layer, and e) a plurality of pegs equal in number to the number of holes. The pegs are longer than the thickness of the display cover and furthermore are significantly more translucent than the display cover, such that when inserted into the holes by the user, they operate as light pipes and channel light generated by the light source, across the display cover, and scatter light toward the viewer, thereby allowing the pegs to operate as highlighters over the lesser illuminated display cover.
