Abstract
A method for manufacturing an electronic product, includes: obtaining a flexible, optically substantially transparent or translucent, substrate sheet; printing a number of electrical conductors on the substrate sheet in accordance with a predefined schematic; printing or disposing a number of electronic components including optoelectronic light emissive, preferably LED (light-emitting diode), components on the substrate sheet in accordance with the schematic, wherein at least some of the printed conductors are configured to provide electrical current thereto; and attaching a flexible, optically substantially transparent, lightguide sheet to the substrate so as to establish a functional multi-layer structure, where the light emitted by the light emissive components is incoupled to the lightguide, propagates therewithin, and is at least partly outcoupled to the environment through the substrate sheet. Related arrangement and electronic device are presented.
