Lighting system
There is provided a lighting system for a vehicle. The lighting system comprises a holographic projector and a light distribution system. The holographic projector comprises a hologram engine and a spatial light modulator. The hologram engine is arranged to output holograms. The spatial light modulator is arranged to display each hologram and spatially-modulate light in accordance with each hologram. The spatially-modulated light forms a holographic reconstruction, corresponding to each hologram, on a replay plane. The light distribution system comprises a plurality of optical fibres. Each optical fibre comprises an input optically-coupled to respective sub-area of the replay plane and an output optically coupled with an illumination sub-system of the vehicle.
Light element of a vehicle
The invention relates to a light element of a vehicle with at least one light source configured to emit light rays, a reflective layer. With a pattern made wholly or partly in the reflective layer. The light element further including an optical element configured to project the light rays from the at least one light source towards the reflective layer. With a dark layer extending along the optical element on the side opposite the reflective layer.
Vehicle lamp
A vehicle lamp includes a plurality of types of light output units having different illumination functions, a light emission drive unit configured to cause the plurality of types of light output units to output lights, and a monitoring sensor. The vehicle lamp is arranged at an upper part of a vehicle.
Lighting device with lightguide assembly which can be locked therein
In a lighting device for a vehicle, a light guide assembly (10) for guiding the light emitted by a light source comprises a head portion (12) with decoupling elements (18) for decoupling at least some of the coupled-in light, and also a feed line portion (11), which comprises a coupling-in region (15) for the coupling-in of light from a light source and by means of which light coupled in in this way is fed to the head portion (12). The coupling-in region (15) has a first securing arrangement (13) with at least one element protruding transversely to the longitudinal axis of the coupling-in region (15), for example a pin, by means of which the coupling-in region (15) is insertable into a first securing location in the lighting device and lockable there. The head portion (12) has a second securing arrangement (14) for securing the head portion (12) in the lighting device.
Illumination device
An illumination device includes: an elongated light guide; a first light source; a second light source; and a controller. A first increase beginning time point at which the brightness of the first light source begins to increase from zero is prior to a second increase beginning time point at which the brightness of the second light source begins to increase from zero. A first increase finish time point at which the brightness of the first light source finishes increasing to the first set brightness is simultaneous with or prior to a second increase finish time point at which the brightness of the second light source finishes increasing to the second set brightness. A time from the first increase beginning time point to the second increase finish time point is not more than 0.2 seconds.
ELECTRICAL DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE RUNNING BOARD
An electrical device for a vehicle includes a housing having an upper portion and a lower portion. An upper light source attaches to the upper portion and a light guiding element attaches to the upper portion to receive the upper light from the upper light source and direct outgoing light in a substantially uniform direction. A display attaches to the upper portion to receive the outgoing light for illumination of the display. A lower member couples with the lower portion. A lower light source attaches to the lower member. A collimator attaches to the lower member to receive incoming light from the lower light source and change directions of the incoming light to a collimated beam. A lens element attaches to the lower portion to direct the collimated beam at a target.
ILLUMINATION DEVICE AND MOVING BODY
An illumination device disposed on a moving body includes at least one main light source, and at least one auxiliary light source disposed in a periphery of the at least one main light source when seen along a traveling direction of the moving body. The illumination device further includes a first light guide disposed adjacent to the at least one main light source, that guides light transmitted from the at least one main light source, and a second light guide that is disposed adjacent to the at least one auxiliary light source, that guides light transmitted from the at least one auxiliary light source. The illumination device also includes an optical component that transmits the light from the first light guide and the light from the second light guide in the traveling direction of the moving body.
Vehicle light assembly and lighting method
A light assembly (2) such as for a headlight comprises a housing (9), the housing (9) having a rear and a front, whereby in use light is emitted from the front of the housing (9). A transparent or translucent light guide (10, 110) extends from the rear to the front and at least partially surrounded by the housing (9). The light guide (10, 110) lit at its rear and emits light along at least part of its length. It is provided with formations (17, 117) so as to take the appearance of cut glass or crystal and is used as a park light and as part of a welcome sequence.
VEHICLE LAMP
A vehicle lamp has a roof unit. The roof unit includes a plurality of types of light output units having different illumination functions, a light emission drive unit configured to cause the plurality of types of light output units to output lights, and a monitoring sensor. The roof unit is arranged at a roof part of a vehicle.
Lighting apparatus arrangement for saddle riding vehicle, and saddle riding vehicle
To provide a lighting apparatus arrangement for a saddle riding vehicle, allowing a predetermined illumination distance and illumination range of laser light to be easily achieved. A lighting apparatus includes a laser device, a first light guide, and a front-portion light emitting unit. The laser device emits laser light. The first light guide guides light from the laser device to any desired position. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a distal end of the first light guide and irradiates areas around a vehicle with light from the first light guide. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a position higher in level than a lower end of a meter unit disposed at a front portion of a vehicle body.
