The invention is related to an automotive lighting device (10) comprising a light source (1) configured to emit light in a light direction (dl), a sensor (2) and a cover (3). The sensor (2) is configured to acquire information outside the lighting device by emitting a wave in a sensor direction (d2), the wavelength of the wave being comprised between 1 mm and 1 cm. The cover (3) comprises a first portion (31) located in the light direction and a second portion (32) located in the sensor direction, the second portion (32) comprising a sensor region (33) having a refractive index and a thickness which is comprised between 0.8 and 1.2 times an ideal thickness, the ideal thickness being equal to a natural number multiplied by the wavelength and divided by two times the refractive index.

A resin molded member for a vehicle lamp includes a first resin molded part, a second resin molded part, a bent resin molded part bent and molded to have a groove section between the first resin molded part and the second resin molded part, and a rib wall that is disposed inside the groove section and that is configured to connect between a first inclined wall and a second inclined wall which form the groove section of the bent resin molded part, wherein the rib wall is formed at a position overlapping with a gate mark which is formed on at least one of the first inclined wall and the second inclined wall through injection molding.

The present disclosure provides a light bulb for use in a lamp housing of a vehicle. The light bulb includes a bulb body assembly having one or more light sources fixedly attached thereto, and a mounting assembly configured to mount on the lamp housing. The bulb body assembly and the mounting assembly are connected by a rotatable joint such that positions of the one or more light sources can be adjusted after the mounting assembly is mounted on the lamp housing. In some embodiments, a key portion is attached to the bulb body assembly to rotate the bulb body assembly relative to the mounting assembly.

A replacement lighting apparatus for automobiles is slim and includes an industry-leading footprint to fit into modern headlamps' minimal housing space. The lighting apparatus employs chip scale package light emitting diodes (CSP LEDs), flexible metal heat sinks, an improved collar having a watertight seal formed with an elastomeric gasket and the use of at least one, if not multiple, set screws, a wire harness with a nylon braided sleeve, and a solid-state design for maximum performance, long life, and superior scientifically proven heat mitigation.

A vehicle lamp mounted on a vehicle includes: a lamp housing; a lamp cover that covers an opening of the lamp housing; at least one illumination unit disposed in a lamp chamber formed by the lamp housing and the lamp cover; a radar disposed in the lamp chamber and configured to acquire radar data indicating a surrounding environment of the vehicle by emitting a radio wave to an outside of the vehicle; and a dielectric lens disposed in front of the radar and configured to allow the radio wave emitted from the radar to pass therethrough. The dielectric lens is configured to narrow a spread angle of the radio wave emitted from the radar.

A sensor system includes a first sensor, a second sensor, a cover, and a control device. The first sensor detects, with first light, a state of a first area located outside a vehicle and outputs first detecting information corresponding to the state. The second sensor detects, with second light, a state of a second area located outside the vehicle and at least partially overlapping with the first area, and outputs second detecting information corresponding to the state. The cover covers at least one of the first and second sensors while forming a part of an outer face of the vehicle and allows passage of at least one of the first and second light. The control device detects an abnormality of the cover based on an inconsistency between the first and second detecting information that are outputted for an area where the first area and the second area overlap.
