  • Patent number: 4641446
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for producing a multisided, multicolored display which includes an enclosure with a plurality of translucent light scattering sides, top and bottom. A plurality of light sources are positioned in a spaced apart relationship to radiate sufficiently to illuminate all of the light scattering sides. Each of the light sources is of a different color, and the radiation from each source overlaps radiation from the other sources on the light scattering sides. A plurality of symbols may be interposed between the light sources and the light scattering sides to create colored images. Each of the enclosures represents a module, wherein several discrete modules are structured in a matrix fashion, and the entire matrix comprises the display.
