  • the privacy screen includes a brightness difference device having a first side facing the first area and a second side opposite the first side and facing the second area, the first side of the brightness difference device being at least temporarily brighter than the second side of the brightness difference device, in which: the first side emits light of a predetermined wavelength, and the second side has a filter that blocks the light of the predetermined wavelength and transmits light of other wavelengths.
  • Embodiment 22 is a privacy screen according to embodiment 21, wherein the filter is a notch filter that blocks the light emitted from the first side but transmits light with shorter wavelengths and light with longer wavelengths.
  • Embodiment 23 is a privacy screen according to embodiment 21, wherein the filter is a cut-off filter that blocks light emitted from the first side but transmits longer wavelength light.
  • Embodiment 24 is a privacy screen according to embodiment 21, wherein the filter is an edge filter that blocks the light emitted from the first side but transmits light with shorter wavelengths.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de protection visuelle (100) qui sépare une première zone (106) et une deuxième zone (108) opposée et qui est conçu pour protéger au moins temporairement la deuxième zone (108) d'une observation à partir de la première zone et garantir une observation à partir de la deuxième zone (108) vers la première zone. Le dispositif de protection visuelle (100) comprend un dispositif de distinction de luminosité (110) comprenant une première face (102) orientée vers la première zone et une deuxième face (104) qui est opposée à la première face et est orientée vers la deuxième zone (108), la première face (102) du dispositif de distinction de luminosité (110) étant au moins temporairement plus claire que la deuxième face du dispositif de distinction de luminosité (110), la première face (102) étant, à la différence de la deuxième face, autoluminescente en direction de la première zone (106), et/ou la première face (102) présentant une réflectivité supérieure à celle de la deuxième face (104), et la première face (102) étant éclairée par un dispositif d'éclairage (222) intégré dans le dispositif de protection visuelle (100).
