      My first try.

      I tried to get the screen to emit light as well as reflect the light from adjacent IPhones.

        I actually tried this a while back, while eagerly waiting for my ipod touch to ship.

        i think the noise is due to the low quality HDRI

          The only light source here is the iPhone screen:

            Hi,

            I use Twilight and was wondering how to get the home screen to emit light and be reflective at the same time?

            Can i set it as glass and 'Fake Emitter' simultaneously?

            Good challenge Pete 👍

              Rich, why not build it just as it would be in real life? Put the glass over the emitter.

                First run. Ok except the apple fell off somewhere!

                  I used modeling to provide the emitter / reflection combination. I moved the screen back a tiny bit and placed another "plastic" surface in front. Made the apple glow, just because. 😉

                    V-ray renders, studio setup, I just used the same texture from diffuse, for the emissive layer of the v-ray material.

                            Finally had a few minutes to throw these into the mix. Great renders all the way around from everyone!

                              Adam, I like the composition of Iphone_LED2.jpg. Good looking materials, except there is something odd going with the table lamp; ceramic base has some material (or surface normal) problem with the grazing angle.

                                Thanks Notareal. I adjusted the material and got a better result. Also added an HDRI for fill light.

                                    Thanks Kim. I used Vray for Max with the Solid Rocks plugin for render settings. Vray light material for the LCD.

                                        If I may, I would like to try again.
                                        I went to sleep last night thinking of a way to render as quickly as possible without light-emitting materials, and today I woke up and I had the idea to only using projectors, a thin glass to cover the screen, and most importantly, projector must coincides exactly with the image on the screen.
                                        Then I looked at my clock alarm and I think that this may be interesting to show the reflection in the "thin glass" over the Iphone screen, how to do this too...? I put a red light iside the alarm and a red glass on the numbers, the result you see now!
