Systems and methods for targeted illumination of an object coupled to a machine, such as an implement coupled to an agricultural vehicle, are disclosed. The systems and methods include sensing an area adjacent to the machine, determining whether an implement is present in the sensed area, and providing targeted illumination to the detected object while avoiding the provision of light to the area that is not occupied by the object.

A projection mechanism of a vehicle projection device projects a graphic of a graphic film toward an outer side of a vehicle. A projection direction of the graphic from the projection mechanism is inclined with respect to a rotation axis of the projection mechanism. Thus, by manually rotating a dial to rotate the projection mechanism about the rotation axis, the projection direction of the graphic from the projection mechanism can be altered, and the projection position of the graphic from the projection mechanism can be altered.

A lighting system is provided herein. The lighting system includes a spotlight is mounted to a vehicle, a controller for operating the spotlight, and a pointer device for specifying an intended target. The controller aims the spotlight in the direction of the intended target based on input provided by the pointer device.

A lamp module includes a light source unit that generates light, an optical unit that forms a predetermined beam pattern by transmitting the light generated by the light source unit therethrough, and a reflection unit that reflects the light generated by the light source unit to be incident upon the optical unit. In particular, the light source unit includes a light source chip, which is spaced apart laterally from an optical axis of the optical unit, and the light source chip is disposed to allow a central line that passes through middle of both sides of a light-emitting surface formed by at least one light source to be tilted with respect to the optical axis of the optical unit by an angle that is different from an angle that a central axis of the reflection unit forms with respect to the optical axis of the optical unit.

A thin aspect lighting system and method are shown. The system and method include at least one module having a reflector that is generally elliptical in one cross-section and generally parabolic in another cross-section. Each module is adapted to generate at least one of a flat beam pattern, a high beam pattern or a low beam pattern, such as a low beam pattern with a kink or elbow. Also shown is a headlamp assembly having a plurality of modules that generate the same or a different light beam pattern. Manipulation and variation of facets or positions of various components, such as at least one light source provides improved characteristics in one or more of the light beam patterns.

A vehicle headlight system can include a headlight controller and a lamp unit incorporating a high beam module, which can emit favorable marking lights while the headlight controller associates each of a shading driver and a swivel structure with a shading width setter and a swivel setter, respectively. When a forward vehicle does not exist in a forward direction, the headlight systems can provide favorable light distribution patterns by overlapping the light distribution pattern projected from the high beam module with each of light distribution patterns for a high and low beam. When the forward vehicle exists, the headlight system can prevent the lamp unit from emitting a glare type light to the forward vehicle. Thus, the disclosed subject matter can provide vehicle headlight systems, which can emit favorable light patterns toward a pedestrian as a marking light, and which can provide favorable light distribution patterns to drive at night.

A control device for a vehicle lamp controls an adjustment of an optical axis angle of a vehicle lamp provided with a vibration generating source that vibrates at a first frequency, and the control device includes an acceleration sensor provided in the vehicle lamp and configured to sample an acceleration at a second frequency that is a non-integral multiple of the first frequency, a receiving unit that receives a signal indicating an output value from the acceleration sensor, and a controlling unit that executes control of adjusting the optical axis angle of the vehicle lamp on the basis of the output value from the acceleration sensor.
