The invention describes an LED lighting unit comprising a container with a number of partially reflective side walls; a light exit opening defined by the side walls; and a number of light-emitting diodes arranged in the container to emit light of a first color through the light exit opening during an on-state of the lighting unit; characterized in that the material properties of the partially reflective container side walls are chosen to impart a second non-white color to the container side walls, and to absorb light in at least one specific region of the visible spectrum such that light of the non-white second color exits the lighting unit through the light exit opening during an off-state of the lighting unit. The invention further describes a method of manufacturing such an LED lighting unit.

An illumination device includes at least one illuminant for emitting light, and an optical reflection unit, including at least one reflective surface, and at least one surface including at least one mask, where the optical reflection unit is configured to receive the light emitted from the at least one illuminant and project at least one of an image, a symbol, a logo, and a legend on a projection surface.

The invention proposes a light device casing formed by a wall made of an electrically insulating material, such as a polymer. The casing includes an inner surface forming a housing receiving a light module with a light-emitting diode and a light guide. The inner surface includes a zone reflecting light from the light module out of the casing, and a fixing zone for a control module of the light module. The light device includes a reflecting and electrically conductive coating, which covers both the reflecting zone and the fixing zone. The aluminum coating is cost-effective since it is applied in one step, and it ensures two functions, namely a reflection and a protection against the electromagnetic field.

A light assembly for a vehicle includes quantum dots that are excitable by sources of electromagnetic radiation. The assembly may include a lens and a reflector, and the quantum dots may be disposed adjacent the reflector and/or in the lens. A controller may receive a signal to produce a particular color and activate one or more source of electromagnetic radiation, and one or more subsets of the quantum dots may be excited in response to activating the particular source of electromagnetic radiation. The assembly may include a panel having quantum dots embedded therein. The panel may be illuminated by the quantum dots in response to activating one or more source of electromagnetic radiation. The panel may have different zones with different quantum dots that produces distinct areas with different colors. The sources of electromagnetic radiation may be activated separately to produce different colors or simultaneously to produce a blended color.

Provided is a lighting device that converts an exiting light into a stereoscopic light having a sense of depth or a sense of volume, whereby light images having stereoscopic effects can be implemented using light emitted from a light-emitting device and simultaneously, a structure of a printed circuit board (PCB) located at a lower portion of a light passage portion is eliminated and a direct-type light-emitting device located at sides of the light passage portion and having high versatility is used such that flexibility of the light passage portion is attained and a degree of freedom of a design can be enhanced.

The present disclosure relates to a lighting device and a vehicular lamp including the same. A lens member is provided between a shielding module and a light guide member. Through a non-air-gap structure in which a separation portion between components is removed, diversity of mechanism designs may be secured, and at the same time, light efficiency may be improved. A light emitting direction of a light emitting element forms an inclination angle with a light emitting surface of a light source module, so that a deterioration phenomenon of a light guide member formed of resin may be removed, and a light beam emitted through a first light guide member is emitted as an indirect light beam.

A lamp device includes a light emitting unit and a reflecting unit including first and second reflecting modules. The first reflecting module reflects light towards the second reflecting module and has a reflectivity substantially over 70% for light of wavelength ranging from 550 nm to 800 nm. The second reflecting module reflects light towards the first reflecting module and has a reflectivity that substantially ranges from 50% to 75% for light of wavelength ranging from 460 nm to 700 nm. The light emitting unit emits light toward the reflecting unit such that at least a part of the light emitted by the light emitting unit is reflected from one of the first reflecting module and the second reflecting module.
