A light system having a light supply arrangement, a Homogenizing Light Pipe (HLP) and a fiber bundle is disclosed. The light supply arrangement includes a light source and is arranged to supply light to an input end of the HLP. The HLP is configured for scrambling the received light and for delivering a beam of light to a common packed input end of the fiber bundle.

A light pipe includes at least two optical structures having different refractive indices. An interface between the two optical structures is oblique to a longitudinal axis of the light pipe such that an output ray from an output surface at a distal end of the light pipe is non-parallel to an input ray that is parallel to the longitudinal axis at an input surface at a proximal end of the light pipe. Light refracts inside the light pipe between the (at least) two optical structures altering the direction of an optical path of the light through the light pipe, thereby allowing higher degrees of freedom for the selection of the angle of deviation (folding angle) of the light pipe. By optimizing various parameters of the light pipe, a desired output optical axis angle (i.e., folding angle) can be achieved that suits the desired optical engine envelope.
