Patent ID: 8264775

Claim:
A solar panel associated with an optical system for displaying an image on its surface, comprising: a solar panel; a transparent printed film having an image, from which a series of parallel linear bands of identical width and equidistantly spaced apart have been removed to form a series of transparent bands and image bands; and a lenticular surface including a juxtaposition of identical linear lenses, a width of which is equal to a sum of a width of a transparent band plus a width of an image band, and a plane face of which is turned toward the image, a longitudinal axis of the lenses being parallel to the image bands and to the transparent bands, the transparent bands and the image bands being positioned between the surface of the solar panel and the lenticular surface, in a focal plane of the lenses, such that an observer will see alternatively only the image bands or only the surface of the solar panel, the alternatives depending on a viewing angle at which the lenticular surface is observed.
