Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+1FB09 "🬉" Block Sextant-24 is a typographic symbol belonging to the Symbols for Legacy Computing block, representing a specific rectangular pattern used in early computer and terminal graphics. This character encodes the "sextant" concept, where a square block is divided into six triangular segments, and the "24" refers to a particular combination of filled and empty sectors within that grid. Part of a set designed to preserve and reproduce the bitmap graphics of vintage systems, it allows modern digital text to display the exact pixelated shapes once used in video displays, teletext, and other retro computing interfaces.
