A vehicle projection device including: a reflector that is provided in a vehicle and is provided with a reflective surface, with the reflective surface reflecting light; an image member that is provided with an image and through which the light reflected by the reflective surface is transmitted; and a lens through which the light that has been transmitted through the image member is transmitted, whereby the image is magnified and projected.

A system includes a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including determining a current state of a vehicle, the current state determined based on information from sensors, receiving a lighting control signal based on the information received from the sensors, and activating an adjustable and controllable spotlight based on the lighting control signal.

A vehicle interior lighting device includes a light-emitting portion, a case that includes a side wall surrounding the light-emitting portion and houses the light-emitting portion, and a plate-shaped lens fixed to the case so as to cover an opening of the case and an open end of the side wall defining the opening. Light emitted from the light-emitting portion can be extracted from the entire region of a light extraction surface of the lens including an edge without being reflected.

A lighting device includes a facet body, the interior of which is translucent and which includes a surface made of a plurality of flat facets. The facet body is arranged on an opening formed in a cover that outwardly delimits an inner region of the lighting device. The surface of the facet body includes a first surface section and a second surface section, the first surface section is outwardly exposed via the opening and is translucent, and the second surface section lies in the inner region and has a reflective layer with the exception of one or more translucent surface regions. A plurality of light sources are arranged in the inner region such that the light sources emit light into the facet body via the translucent surface region(s) of the second surface section.

An optical system and an interior lighting device for a motor vehicle including a light source coupled to such an optical system. The optical system includes a first portion of an optical assembly that allows a real image of the light source to the enlarged and projected into proximity to a diffuser of the optical system. The optical assembly also includes a second portion that plays the role of a projecting optic to project out of the optical system a real image of the of the light source formed in proximity to the diffuser. The optical system allows a luminance of the light source of the interior lighting device to be decreased while preserving its pixelization, allowing light sources based on light-emitting diodes and driven with a high-amperage electrical current to be used in motor-vehicle passenger compartments without any risk to the occupants.

Lamp assemblies for illuminating interior or exterior spaces of a vehicle are provided. In one implementation, a lamp assembly includes a housing having a frame, the housing being adapted to at least partially cover a light device installed within the housing. Light radiating from the light device passes through an opening in the frame. The lamp assembly further includes a lens adapted to be removably connected to the frame of the housing. When connected to the housing, the lens is adapted to refract the light radiating from the light device through the opening in the frame. When the lens is connected to the frame of the housing, a shortest path between the light device and the lens is defined by a z-axis. The lens may include one or more slide components to allow the lens to slide into or onto the frame along an x-axis that is perpendicular to the z-axis.

A luminous device for a motor vehicle, comprising a light source including a plurality of emitting elements that are configured to form at least one first emission zone and one second emission zone that are addressable selectively from each other. The luminous device also comprises a screen that is at least partially transparent to the light emitted by the light source, comprising first transmission zones and second transmission zones that are respectively arranged facing the first and second emission zones, the first transmission zones being configured to scatter the light beams emitted by the first emission zones.

The present disclosure provides a night vision imaging system (NVIS) lighting system, comprising a frame comprising a first light source, a second light source adjacent to the first light source, a third light source adjacent to the second light source, and a diffuser mounted to the frame and encasing the first light source, the second light source, and the third light source. The first light source may comprise a first dominant wavelength, the second light source may comprise a second dominant wavelength different from the first dominant wavelength, and the third light source may comprise a third dominant wavelength different from the first dominant wavelength and the second dominant wavelength. Light emitted from the first light source, the second light source, and the third light source may be blended to generate a first blended light source comprising a first target output color.
