U+1FB12 "🬒" Block Sextant-125 Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🬒
U+1FB12 "🬒" Block Sextant-125 is a symbol from the Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement block, representing a specific arrangement of illuminated pixels in a six-segment grid often used for early computer or terminal graphics. This particular pattern fills five of the six triangular sections of the sextant shape, leaving only the top right segment empty, and it serves as a building block for recreating bitmap fonts and low-resolution raster images from vintage computing systems. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve the visual language of historical text mode displays and allows for accurate digital representation of retro computing interfaces.
