A vehicle lamp includes a light source, a lighting control unit configured to control an emission timing of light emitted from the light source, and a rotary scanning unit configured to repeatedly perform scanning with the light emitted from the light source while rotating. The vehicle lamp illuminates a predetermined region with scan light. The rotary scanning unit performs plural repetitive scans in one rotation. The lighting control unit detects a rotation cycle of the rotary scanning unit, and controls the emission timing of the light source at a timing obtained by equally dividing the detected rotation cycle.

The present invention relates to an automotive optical system; the optical system includes one or more first optical elements that reflect light rays emitted from a number of first light sources that are configured to perform a first lighting function and a second optical element; the second optical element is configured to project a light beam from the first optical elements configured to perform the first lighting function where a portion of the second optical element is made of a diffusive material. Furthermore, the optical system includes a number of secondary light sources where the second optical element is configured to receive light ray emissions from the secondary light sources and perform a second lighting function by scattering light rays received from secondary light sources.

The present disclosure relates to a lamp for a vehicle, the lamp including: a board; a light source disposed on one surface of the board; and a reflector configured to transfer heat to the board and receive heat from the board and having a reflective surface for reflecting light emitted from the light source, thereby simplifying a structure and improving spatial utilization and a degree of design freedom.

A system may have lights. A light may include a first light source and a first reflector configured to provide lighting for a high-beam mode and for a low-beam mode. The light may include a second light source and a second reflector configured to provide lighting for a cornering light mode. The lighting provided by the first light source and the lighting provided by the second light source may pass through the same headlight lens aperture. A light blocking structure may provide a cutoff pattern that define the illumination pattern of the low-beam lighting and the cornering lighting. One or more additional light sources may be provided to boost the intensity of a hot spot for high-beam lighting.

A vehicle headlamp includes: a first light source unit that forms at least a high-beam light distribution pattern; a second light source unit that forms an additional light distribution pattern and irradiates light with a luminous intensity higher than that of the first light source unit; a posture switching mechanism that switches between a first posture in which an optical axis of the second light source unit is parallel to an optical axis of the first light source unit and a second posture in which the optical axis of the second light source unit is deviated in the horizontal direction by a predetermined angle from the optical axis of the first light source unit; and a controller that controls an ON/OFF state of the second light source unit and an operation state of the posture switching mechanism according to a vehicle speed acquired from a vehicle.

The present disclosure discloses a heat dissipating structure for automotive LED headlight, which comprises a radiator formed integrally, wherein the radiator comprises one or more heat radiating arms. The heat radiating arm is provided with an embedded groove used for accommodating an assembly of a lamp bead board and a heat pipe. The beneficial effect of the present disclosure is that: the heat of the lamp bead board is transferred to the radiator, thus the heat dissipation efficiency has been greatly improved.

A lighting apparatus for a vehicle may include: a housing installed inside the front of a vehicle and formed one side thereof with an opening, a plurality of light emitting units installed inside the housing and configured to emit light toward the opening, and a plurality of flap units rotatably installed in the housing, disposed to face the plurality of light emitting units, and configured to open or close the opening.

A configurable vehicle lighting module system includes a shared lens that provides a first light pattern for a first vehicle lighting function and a second light pattern for a second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens includes a mounting axis as a reference for mounting on a vehicle. First internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the first light pattern; second internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the second light pattern. A coupling system joins the shared lens with either the first internal optics to form a first module configuration for the first vehicle lighting function or with the second internal optics to form a second module configuration for the second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens conceals physical differences between internal optics configurations such that the first and second light module configurations appear the same when viewed along the shared lens.

Disclosed is a lens for a vehicle including a light source part including a plurality of light sources that irradiate light, and a lens part that outputs the light irradiated by the light source part to a front side, and the lens part includes a first lens disposed on a front side of the light source part, and a thickness of which becomes smaller as it goes toward opposite sides with respect to a leftward/rightward direction, and a second lens disposed on a front side of the first lens and deflected to be disposed on a more rear side as it goes from one end to an opposite end thereof with respect to the leftward/rightward direction.

A headlamp illumination source that switches from a first configuration conforming to on-road illumination standards to a second configuration that does not conform to on-road illumination standards. The switching is preferably controlled by a wireless signal but in some embodiments the switching can be controlled by a hard-wired signal or by a switch proximate the illumination source itself.
