The invention relates to a signaling system comprising at least one light-emitting device (1) for showing a signal or warning to a viewer (99), wherein, in operational use, the light-emitting device (1) is configured for emitting radiation with a light distribution forming a solid angle in space, wherein a center line of the solid angle is defined as an optical axis (Z) of the light-emitting device (1). The light-emitting device (1) comprises a transparent housing (3), a reflector (5) and a light-emitting part (7) arranged within the housing (3), wherein the reflector (5) and the light-emitting part (7) are configured for generating the radiation with said light distribution. The signaling system further comprises blocking means (10) are arranged substantially at one side of the light-emitting device (1). The blocking means (10) are configured for individually blocking, in operational use, at least part of the radiation emitted by the light-emitting device (1) in a direction substantially parallel to the optical axis (Z), wherein the one side is defined with respect to a fictitious plane through the optical axis (Z). The invention further relates to various applications of such signaling system. Despite the lower luminance of the light-emitting device, the invention provides for a higher-contrast ratio in case of a low-angled sun with respect to the optical axis (Z).
