An intelligent type lamp and a vehicle lamp apparatus are disclosed. The lamp includes a first substrate, a second substrate disposed on the first substrate, and a plurality of light sources disposed on the second substrate, wherein the light sources are grouped into at least one light source array, in each of which the light sources are disposed in a line, and the at least one light source array includes neighboring first and second light source arrays electrically isolated and individually driven. The light sources of the first light source array may be electrically isolated and individually driven, and the light sources of the second light source array may be electrically isolated and individually driven. Alternatively, the light sources of the first light source array may be electrically isolated and individually driven, and the light sources of the second light source array may be electrically connected and simultaneously driven.

A method is described for ascertaining a group of at least two adjacently situated illumination units during the travel of a vehicle. The method includes a step of recognizing at least one first illumination unit and at least one second illumination unit in a detection range of a sensor and recognizing a subsequent departure of the first illumination unit from the detection range of the sensor. The method also includes a step of detecting a distance and/or a time which the vehicle travels after a departure of the first illumination unit from the detection range of the sensor up to a departure of the second illumination unit from the detection range of the sensor.

The present disclosure provides an automotive lamp, and more particularly, to an automotive lamp capable of informing an ambient vehicle approaching from one side behind the vehicle of a vehicle state by irradiating light of a road pattern to indicate the vehicle state to an area behind the vehicle. The automotive lamp includes a lamp unit disposed in a rear lamp housing of a vehicle and a detection unit configured to detect whether a reverse shift stage is selected. The lamp unit is configured to irradiate a first light distribution pattern that forms a reversing light signal pattern in the rearward direction of the vehicle, and a second light distribution pattern that forms a road pattern on the rearward road surface of the vehicle. The first light distribution pattern and the second light distribution pattern are formed simultaneously, when the reverse shift stage is selected.

The disclosure relates to a road finishing machine having a chassis, a material bunker for receiving paving material located at the front in the paving direction of the road finishing machine, and a screed for compacting paving material located at the rear in the paving direction of the road finishing machine. On a driver stand of the road finishing machine, a main control platform with primary operational controls is provided for controlling working components of the road finishing machine. The primary operational controls may be actuated by an operator located on the road finishing machine. An operation unit with a plurality of secondary operational controls is provided laterally at the chassis or the material bunker.
