Abstract

The invention relates to a display device having a fiber-optic plate and a display with an image plane on which the image information of the display is generated, the fiber-optic plate comprising a fiber bundle with a multiplicity of fiber cores extending beside one another, which are enclosed by a cladding material and which transmit light from an entry face of the fiber-optic plate, facing the display, to an exit face of the fiber-optic plate, wherein the entry face of the fiber-optic plate lies further away from the image plane than the lateral dimension of the smallest image information representable by the display.
