Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021240115A1] Disclosed is a device for distributing light (100) configured such that, during use, it distributes light rays originating from an ancillary light source onto a scene (S) to be illuminated, and which comprises: - a planar waveguide (110), with a core layer (120) arranged between the two cladding layers; and - an extraction assembly, situated in the planar waveguide, and consisting of a plurality of diffraction gratings (151) distributed according to the two dimensions of a plane parallel to the plane of the planar waveguide.
