A lamp module includes a light source unit that generates light; and a light guide unit that emits at least a portion of the light incident from the light source unit to generate a beam pattern. The light guide unit comprises a light incident portion configured to receive at least a portion of the light incident from the light source unit; a light emitting portion configured to emit at least a portion of the light incident through the light incident portion; and a transmission portion disposed between the light incident portion and the light emitting portion and configured to transmit at least a portion of the light incident through the light incident portion to the light emitting portion. The transmission portion comprises a shield portion including an edge portion formed along a rear focal plane of the light emitting portion and configured to obstruct a portion of the light.

A system and method for evaluating an insurance applicant as part of an underwriting process to determine one or more appropriate terms of life or other insurance coverage, such as premiums. A processing element employing a neural network is trained to correlate aspects of appearance and/or voice with personal and/or health-related characteristic. A database of images and/or voice recordings of individuals with known personal and/or health-related characteristics is provided for this purpose. The processing element is then provided with an image and/or voice recording of the insurance applicant. The image may be an otherwise non-diagnostic image, such as an ordinary “selfie.” The trained processing element analyzes the image of the insurance applicant, with their permission or affirmative consent, to determine the personal and/or health-related characteristic for the insurance applicant, and then, based upon that analysis, facilitates the underwriting process and/or suggests the one or more appropriate terms of insurance coverage.

A vehicular lamp configured to radiate illumination light and measuring light toward a side in front of a vehicle includes a light source unit configured to emit visible light that becomes illumination light and measuring light, and the light source unit emits the illumination light and the measuring light while alternately switching the illumination light and the measuring light at a cycle in which at least the measuring light is not visually recognized by a driver.

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.

Provided is a vehicle headlight device including: a first light irradiator that irradiates light from a light source at a first magnification m1 in a form of a first radiation pattern in which a bright region and a dark region are alternately repeated; and a second light irradiator that irradiates light from a light source at a second magnification in a form of a second radiation pattern in which an entire region is a bright region. In the vehicle headlight device, directivity of the light radiated from the first light irradiator overlaps with directivity of the light radiated from the second light irradiator, and the first magnification m1 is smaller than the second magnification. Thus, it is possible to prevent or reduce failure to notice a pedestrian by a driver even under adverse conditions such as nighttime and rainy weather.

An adaptive-driving-beam (ADB) headlight including a white LED having an emission area; an optional single-crystal-phosphor (SCP) plate mounted over a portion of the emission area; and, optionally, at least one laser that emits a blue laser beam that impinges on the SCP plate such that the SCP plate wavelength converts at least some of the light of the blue laser beam and at least some of the light of the white LED to longer wavelengths than wavelengths of the light of the blue laser beam and the light of the white LED. Some embodiments further include a projection lens; a curved mirror to reflect and focus light from the SCP and/or white LED towards a digital-mirror device (DMD), configured to selectively reflect the received light toward the projection lens, in order to provide increased field of view (FOV) and headlight brightness.

A light device is configured to generate a plurality of beam pattern images in which various images of light emitted from a plurality of fine light emitters are projected through fine lenses and shields, whereby various images of light are projected in accordance with whether the fine light emitters are turned on. Further, a light source array, a shield array, and a lens array are each formed in a plate shape, so the size decreases and the structure is simplified.

An optoelectronic semiconductor device may include a semiconductor body having a first main surface, a first dielectric layer over the first main surface, and a second dielectric layer on a side of the first dielectric layer facing away from the first main surface. The second dielectric layer is patterned to form an ordered photonic structure. The semiconductor body is suitable for emitting or receiving electromagnetic radiation through the first main surface. The first main surface is roughened, and the first dielectric layer is suitable for leveling a roughening of the first main surface.
