VEHICLE LAMP
A vehicle lamp (1) includes a light source (30) that emits pieces of laser light (LR, LG, LB) having different wavelengths in a time division manner, and a plurality of diffraction gratings (43R, 43G, 43B) corresponding to the pieces of laser light (LR, LG, LB) of the wavelengths, respectively. The laser light (LR, LG, LB) of the wavelengths emitted from the light source (30) are incident on the diffraction gratings (43R, 43G, 43B) corresponding to the laser light (LR, LG, LB), and regions irradiated with light (DLR, DLG, DLB) emitted from the diffraction grating (43R, 43G, 43B) overlap with each other.
Steering light assembly
A steering light device is mounted on left or right sides of a motorcycle having an imaginary middle vertical plane extending horizontally in a front-rear direction. The steering light device includes a light unit and a lens unit. The light unit includes at least one inclined elongate auxiliary light descending inwardly toward the imaginary middle vertical plane. The lens unit includes at least one auxiliary lens cooperating respectively with the main and auxiliary lights to project light for compensating light intensity of a dark area in a road surface located in front of the motorcycle when steering the motorcycle to a corresponding one of the left or right.
VEHICULAR LIGHTING DEVICE
A vehicular lighting device includes a scanning light source that includes a semiconductor light source and a motor, and scans a region in front of the lighting device, with light emitted from the semiconductor light source, in accordance with motion of the motor, and a lighting circuit that changes the light quantity of the semiconductor light source in synchronization with the motion of the motor, during a normal lighting period, so as to obtain a predetermined light distribution pattern. The lighting circuit starts the motion of the motor, in response to a lighting command for headlight flashing during a stop period of the motor, and continuously lights the semiconductor light source asynchronously with the motion of the motor, during a start-up period that precedes the normal lighting period.
UNIVERSAL DUAL INFRARED AND WHITE LIGHT BULB
A dual-illumination unit that combines one or more visible LEDs and one or more IR LEDs in the same unit.
