SPOTLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEMS AND METHODS, AND SPOTLIGHTS EMPLOYING THE SAME
A spotlight system including a spotlight continuously rotatable about a spotlight pan axis and tiltable about a spotlight tilt axis. The system includes a spotlight controller including a housing continuously rotatable about a controller pan axis. The housing has a circumferential lip that engages with a fixed based and a hub engaged with a handle. The handle rotates about a controller tilt axis perpendicular to the controller pan axis. A controller board is electrically connected to a slip ring that penetrates the base, with a pan input sensor, a tilt input sensor, and a microprocessor. The pan input sensor measures the position of the housing relative to the base, the tilt input sensor measures the position of the handle relative to the housing, and the microcontroller interprets the positions and generates control signals corresponding to the direction of a spotlight.
REPLACEMENT MULTIFUNCTION AUTOMOBILE LIGHT SYSTEM AND METHOD

A first optic is optically coupled with the first and second light sources. The first light source and first optic illuminate a first illumination zone and the second light source illuminates a second illumination zone, the second illumination zone larger than the first illumination zone.
Vehicle illumination assembly
An illumination assembly is provided herein. The illumination assembly includes a first light source configured to generate an illumination pattern. A second light source is configured to generate an image within the illumination pattern. A lens is optically coupled with the first and second light sources. A controller is configured to control the activation state of the first and second light sources.
ILLUMINATION APPARATUS, HOLOGRAM DEVICE, AND VEHICLE CONTROL METHOD
An illumination apparatus that illuminates an illumination zone having a first direction and a second direction crossing the first direction is provided with a light source to emit a coherent light beam, and a diffraction optical device to diffract the coherent light beam incident from the light source. The diffraction optical device diffracts the incident coherent light beam so that a width of the illumination zone in the second direction gradually becomes wider along the first direction of the illumination zone from a nearer side to the diffraction optical device.
VEHICLE LAMP, VEHICLE LAMP CONTROL SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE PROVIDED WITH VEHICLE LAMP AND VEHICLE LAMP CONTROL SYSTEM
A vehicle lamp includes a light source unit for road surface drawing capable of forming a light source image longer in an upper and lower direction than a left and right direction of the lamp and a projection lens through which light forming the light source image is transmitted and which projects a predetermined light distribution pattern on a road surface. A light emitting surface or a light transmitting surface of the light source unit is disposed in a vicinity of a rear focal point of the projection lens. The light emitting surface or the light transmitting surface is inclined with respect to an upper and lower direction orthogonal to an optical axis of the projection lens.
HEADLAMP FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE AND APPEARANCE LIGHT MODULE FOR SUCH A HEADLAMP
An appearance light module for motor vehicle headlamp comprises at least one light source and one secondary optical element. The secondary optical element has an intake geometry with an entry surface for the light generated by the at least one light source, and an emission geometry with an exit surface for the light passing through the entry surface of the intake geometry. The exit surface of the emission geometry can be seen from outside the motor vehicle when the headlamp is installed in the motor vehicle. The appearance light module is not suitable for generating a low beam light distribution or a high beam light distribution. The appearance light module has no primary optical element, and the light from the at least one light source reaches the entry surface of the secondary optical element without being reflected and without passing through a refractive or diffractive optical element.
Lighting device for vehicle
A lighting device for a vehicle includes a light source configured to perform light irradiation, a blade including a reflective surface configured to reflect light irradiated from the light source toward an area in front of the vehicle, the blade being configured to rotate around a rotation axis, a drive device configured to rotationally drive the blade around the rotation axis, a detector configured to detect a person in front of the vehicle, and a control device configured to, in a case where the person is detected by the detector, control the light source and the drive device such that the drive device rotationally drives the blade to a position where a region in a prescribed range is irradiated with light reflected from the reflective surface of the blade and the light source is turned on.
