Electromagnetic radiation assembly

Abstract

An electromagnetic radiation assembly is described and which includes a reflector having discrete first and second surfaces; a first electromagnetic radiation emitter positioned adjacent to the first surface; and a second electromagnetic radiation emitter positioned adjacent to the second surface, and wherein, when energized, the first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters emit visibly discernible electromagnetic radiation which is reflected by the reflector in a fashion so as to be visible at locations forward of the first surface.

       25 . An electromagnetic radiation assembly, comprising: 
 a first supporting substrate having first and second surfaces, and which further has a region through which an electromagnetic radiation signal may pass;    a first plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters borne by the second surface, and positioned adjacent to the region through which an electromagnetic radiation signal may pass, and wherein the first plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters, when energized, emits electromagnetic radiation which forms a first electromagnetic radiation signal;    a reflector having a plurality of reflector pockets which are individually positioned in covering, eccentric reflecting relation relative to each of the first plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters, and wherein the reflector further includes a region thorough which a second electromagnetic radiation signal may pass, and wherein the first electromagnetic radiation signal generated by the first plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters is reflected by the respective reflector pockets in a direction so as to substantially pass through the region in the first supporting substrate which passes the first electromagnetic radiation signal;    a second supporting substrate having first and second surfaces, and which is positioned in spaced relation relative to the reflector, and wherein the reflector is positioned therebetween the first and second supporting surfaces; and    a second plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters borne by the second supporting substrate and which, when energized, emits electromagnetic radiation which forms a second electromagnetic radiation signal, and wherein the second electromagnetic radiation signal passes through both the region of the reflector which passes the second electromagnetic radiation signal, and the region of the first supporting substrate which permits the passage of the first electromagnetic radiation signal.    
   
   
       26 . An electromagnetic radiation assembly as claimed in  claim 25 , and further comprising: 
 a semitransparent substrate having a first, outwardly facing surface, and a second, inwardly facing surface, and wherein the first surface of the first supporting substrate is juxtaposed relative to the second surface of the semitransparent substrate, and wherein the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the respective first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters pass through the semitransparent substrate in a plurality of directions.    
   
   
       27 . An electromagnetic radiation assembly as claimed in  claim 26 , and further comprising: 
 a third electromagnetic radiation emitter which is borne on the second surface of the first supporting substrate, and which, when energized, emits electromagnetic radiation which is reflected by the first portion of the reflector, and which passes through the semitransparent substrate in one of the plurality of directions.    
   
   
       28 . An electromagnetic radiation assembly as claimed in  claim 25 , and wherein the second plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters comprise, at least in part, a side-emitting light emitting diode.  
   
   
       29 . An electromagnetic radiation assembly as claimed in  claim 26 , and wherein the semitransparent substrate is a semitransparent mirror which is selected from the group of semitransparent mirrors comprising substantially neutrally chromatic, dichroic, electrochromic, and combinations thereof.
