The present invention is directed to a laser light source.

A vehicle indication alert system for improving vehicle visibility for pedestrians and other motorists. The vehicle indication alert system increases the number of turn indicators on a vehicle, so the direction of the turn is more accurately known. The indicators are built directly into a vehicle windshield at the time of manufacture, and alternatively, are added as an after-market feature to an existing vehicle windshield.

A semiconductor light source that includes a substrate B and a plurality of semiconductor light-emitting rods extending respectively from the substrate, and a plurality of separating walls also extending from the substrate. The separating walls are arranged between the rods in such a way as to define groups of rods, and such that at least two separating walls have a different height.

A configurable vehicle lighting module system includes a shared lens that provides a first light pattern for a first vehicle lighting function and a second light pattern for a second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens includes a mounting axis as a reference for mounting on a vehicle. First internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the first light pattern; second internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the second light pattern. A coupling system joins the shared lens with either the first internal optics to form a first module configuration for the first vehicle lighting function or with the second internal optics to form a second module configuration for the second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens conceals physical differences between internal optics configurations such that the first and second light module configurations appear the same when viewed along the shared lens.

A headlamp having a plurality of light sources which emit light during the operation of the headlamp, a primary optical unit, which at least partially shapes the light emanating from the light sources, a secondary optical unit, which includes a first optically functional boundary surface having at least one first section and at least one second section. A first portion of the light emanating from the primary optical unit passing through the at least one first section, and a second portion passing through the at least one second section. The at least one first section having a positive refractive power at least with respect to a first direction and the second section having a lower refractive power than the first section or as a lens having a negative refractive power at least with respect to the first direction.

A lighting system including a lighting device configured to be connected to an object. The lighting device includes a body, at least one visible light source connected to the body, and at least one ultraviolet light source connected to the body. The at least one ultraviolet light source is operably coupled to the at least one visible light source. The lighting device is configured for strobing the visible light and ultraviolet light sources by turning the at least one ultraviolet light source on upon the at least one visible light source turning off and turning the at least one ultraviolet light source off upon the at least one visible light source turning on such that a reflectance material of an object, which is not being illuminated by the at least one visible light source, is illuminated by the at least one ultraviolet light source.
