The present invention relates to an optical device that includes a light guide; at least a first and a second light source; at least a first and a second optical coupler; and at least one collimator to generate a first collimated light beam and a second collimated light beam. The at least one first optical coupler is configured to receive the first collimated light beam that is directed along a first optical axis towards a first region of the light exit face producing a first photometric function. The at least one second optical coupler is configured to receive the second collimated light beam that is directed along a second optical axis towards a second region of the light exit face producing a second photometric function.

A vehicle light assembly including one or more movable light signature members that are selectively translated from a first position partially or wholly in front of conventional light units (low beams, high beams, taillights, etc.) to a second position away from the light units when the light units are in use. Thus, for example, the movable light signature member(s) can include one or more LEDs or the like that are illuminated to act as daytime running lights, turn signal indicators, accessory lights, etc. when they are disposed in front of the light units and when the low beams, high beams, or taillights are not in use. This provides the desired light signature. When the low beams, high beams, or taillights are in use, the movable light signature member(s) are translated out of the way, such that the light units are visible adjacent to and/or between the movable light signature member(s).

A headlamp illumination source that switches from a first configuration conforming to on-road illumination standards to a second configuration that does not conform to on-road illumination standards. The switching is preferably controlled by a wireless signal but in some embodiments the switching can be controlled by a hard-wired signal or by a switch proximate the illumination source itself.

Provided is a lamp for a vehicle capable of forming a plurality of different beam patterns. The vehicle lamp includes a light source system, a lens system, and a shield system. The lens system includes a plurality of incident lenses onto which light emitted from the light source system is incident and a plurality of exit lenses to output the light incident thereto from the plurality of incident lenses to form a predetermined beam pattern. The shield system includes a plurality of main shields to block some of light beams from being directed to the plurality of exit lenses, wherein each of the plurality of shields includes a blocking surface to block a light beam from being directed to the plurality of exit lenses and at least one transmission hole formed in the blocking surface.

The disclosure relates to a lighting device, in particular for integration into a vehicle surface, having a cover with optically opaque surface areas, a light-source carrier, arranged behind the cover and having a plurality of light sources, and signal structures which are arranged between the surface areas and can be illuminated for light emission, wherein different signal patterns can be adjusted by selective control of certain of the light sources for trans-illumination or illumination of one or more associated signal structures. The disclosure further relates to a vehicle, having such a lighting device, and to a method for carrying out various signal functions with such a lighting device.

A vehicle luminaire according to an exemplary embodiment includes: a socket includes a flange, a mounting part, and contains a highly heat conductive resin; a light-emitting module includes at least one light-emitting element; and a heat transfer part is provided between the mounting part and the light-emitting module. An expression of 2.5 [watt]≤WT≤5.5 [watt], an expression of 15 [watt/(m.Math.K)]≤WT≤25 [watt/(m.Math.K)], and an expression of 40 [1/K]≤(A1−A2)×WT/W≤90 [1/K] are satisfied. W [watt] represents electric power that is applied to the light-emitting module. WT [watt/(m.Math.K)] represents heat conductivity of the highly heat conductive resin. A1 [mm] represents a dimension of the flange in a direction orthogonal to a central axis of the vehicle luminaire. A2 [mm] represents a dimension of the mounting part in a direction orthogonal to the central axis of the vehicle luminaire.

A hidden light device for a vehicle is configured to emit light from a grill of the vehicle, and when the light is not emitted, aesthetics of the grill may be maintained. The hidden light device includes: the grill having an outer surface forming a pattern composed of a plurality of grids; grid panels provided to some or all of the plurality of grids, respectively; an optical module provided inside each of the grid panels to allow the grid panels to form the pattern of the grill when turned off, and to emit light through the grid panel when turned on so as to make the grid panel serve as lighting of the vehicle; and a controller configured to control the optical modules to be turned on and off independently.

A lamp control device includes: at least two lamps; a lamp ECU provided in each of the at least two lamps and configured to perform a lamp control on the each of the at least two lamps; and a vehicle ECU configured to communicate a control signal to the lamp ECU. The vehicle ECU is connected to the lamp ECU via a first high-speed communications line. The lamp ECU is configured to independently perform a lamp control by communication through the first high-speed communications line.

A vehicle lamp includes a light source unit including a first light source and a second light source, a reflector which includes a plurality of first reflecting surfaces sharing a first focal point at a position corresponding to the first light source and a plurality of second reflecting surfaces sharing a second focal point at a position corresponding to the second light source, and which has a shape by which the first reflecting surfaces and the second reflecting surfaces diffuse a white light from the first light source and an orange light from the second light source in the right-left direction in an in-vehicle state, and an inner lens that emits the white light and the orange light reflected by the plurality of first reflecting surfaces and the plurality of second reflecting surfaces from a common emission surface to the front of a vehicle.

The present disclosure relates an integrated module including a camera and a lamp, and may include a camera that acquires an image of a periphery of a vehicle and provide the image, at least one first lamp and at least one second lamp disposed at at least one location of an upper side and a lower side of the camera in a direction of a transverse axis of the camera, and a lamp controller that provides electrical energy for the first lamp to the first lamp and provides electrical energy for the second lamp to the second lamp according to daytime/nighttime determination information based on the image.
