White Up-Pointing Chevron

White Up-Pointing Chevron at U+1FBCA is a hollow triangular chevron symbol pointing upward, intended for reproducing old text-mode and mosaic-style screen graphics rather than for ordinary punctuation. It is in the Symbols for Legacy Computing block, a set that encodes shapes used by historic terminals, teletext systems, semigraphic character sets, and early computer interfaces. Its main use is in retro-computing preservation and emulation, where 🯊 can stand in for a cell-based up chevron from legacy display hardware or character ROMs. It may appear in reconstructions of menu arrows, cursor indicators, game screens, box-and-panel interfaces, or teletext-like diagrams where the exact filled-or-hollow shape matters. Designers and archivists also use it when documenting legacy character sets, comparing glyph repertoires, or creating faithful plain-text mockups of old user interfaces. It is less common in everyday writing than ordinary arrows or geometric triangles, and font support is more specialized because the character belongs to a relatively recent technical block.
