Abstract

L'invention concerne une plaque à fibre optique (1) comprenant des zones de détection (12) dans lesquelles des absorbeurs de lumière sont disposés autour de trajets optiques, et des zones d'éclairage (14) dans lesquelles l'absorbeur de lumière n'est pas disposé entre les trajets optiques adjacents. Une surface de sortie à motif irrégulier (124) et un élément d'imagerie (4), ainsi qu'une surface d'incidence de lumière d'éclairage (142) et un réseau de DEL (5) sont reliés les uns aux autres au moyen d'un agent adhésif transparent, l'axe des trajets optiques et la surface d'entrée à motif irrégulier (122) étant inclinés selon un angle d'inclinaison défini de sorte que la lumière incidente provenant de l'air n'est pas totalement réfléchie sur une surface de séparation noyau/gaine.
