VEHICLE LAMP OPTICAL ASSEMBLY, VEHICLE LAMP MODULE, VEHICLE LAMP, AND VEHICLE
A vehicle lamp optical assembly includes a primary optical unit having a plurality of primary optical units arranged side by side. The primary optical unit has a light entrance portion and a light guide portion. The light guide portion has a light entrance portion mounting surface and a primary light emission surface. The light entrance portion mounting surface has at least one light entrance portion. The light entrance portion is configured to enable incident light to be converged and emitted to the light guide portion, and the light guide portion is configured to guide the incident light to be emitted from the primary light emission surface; and a secondary optical unit. The secondary optical unit has a secondary light emission surface and a secondary light entrance surface corresponding to the primary light emission surface. The secondary light emission surface is a narrow and long smooth curved surface.
VEHICLE LAMP AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING VEHICLE LAMP
A vehicle lamp includes a metal plate having a light source mounted thereon, a lens that light emitted from the light source enters and passes through to exit forward, and a holder that holds the lens. The metal plate and the lens are positioned to the holder.
LAMP FOR AUTOMOBILE AND AUTOMOBILE INCLUDING THE SAME
A lamp for an automobile includes a micro lens array (MLA) module that includes an entrance lens array including entrance lenses, an exit lens array including exit lenses, and a shield unit including shields provided between the entrance lens array and the exit lens array. An optical axis of the exit lens, provided in front of at least a portion of the plurality of entrance lenses to face the entrance lens, is spaced apart from an optical axis of the entrance lens in the downward direction and one side direction. A cut-off line region provided on an upper edge of the shield, provided in front of at least a portion of the plurality of entrance lenses to face the entrance lens, is spaced apart from an optical axis of the entrance lens in the downward direction and one side direction.

VEHICLE PROJECTION LENS AND VEHICLE LAMP
A vehicle projection lens includes a plastic aspheric first lens, an aperture stop, a cemented lens consisting of a glass second lens and a glass third lens, and a glass fourth lens arranged in order from a magnified side to a minified side. An F-number of the vehicle projection lens is smaller than or equal to 0.8, and the vehicle projection lens consists essentially of four lenses respectively with positive, positive, negative and positive refractive powers.
Adaptive vehicle headlight
Example adaptive vehicle headlights are disclosed. An example system includes a photodetector, an illumination source configured to generate first light during a first operating mode, a spatial light modulator (SLM), and a dichroic filter optically coupled to the illumination source and to the SLM, wherein the dichroic filter is configured to direct the first light to the SLM, and the SLM is configured to direct second light to the dichroic filter during a second operating mode, wherein the dichroic filter is configured to direct the second light having a first color to the photodetector, and direct the first light during the first operating mode.
