U+1FB0D "🬍" Block Sextant-234 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+1FB0D "🬍" Block Sextant-234 is a symbol belonging to the Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement block, representing a specific combination of filled triangular segments within a sextant grid. This character is part of a system designed to emulate the graphical output of early computer and terminal displays, where six triangular areas (three upper and three lower) could be selectively filled to create pixel-like patterns. In particular, Block Sextant-234 corresponds to a pattern where the second, third, and fourth segments (typically the middle and rightmost positions in the grid) are filled, producing a distinct shape used for retro computing text mode graphics. It serves as a primitive building block for creating more complex visual elements in systems that lack full bitmap capabilities.
