ABSTRACT:
The body (10) comprises a first portion of transparent material and is provided with embedded optical and other elements (12, 13, 22, 16) and a pattern of conductors15used for interconnection and electrical contacting of the elements (12,13, 22,16). The first portion constitutes a light path from the optical elements (12) to either other opto-electronic elements or electro-optical elements embedded in the body (10) or present at a surface thereof. The electro-optical element is for instance a liquid-crystalline display (20) and the optical elements (12) are for instance light-emitting diodes, which are used for backlighting the display (20). The body (10) has a three-dimensional shape derived from its application and is preferably fitted for mechanical attachment of external components, that together constitute a device (100).
