An illumination module (1) for illuminating a region of a vehicle component (8), which includes a main body (9). The illumination module (1) includes a light source support (2) having at least one light source (3, 3′) and a housing half shell (4), which is connectable to a wall region of the main body (9) of the vehicle component (8) such that a housing defined by the housing half shell (4) of the illumination module, on the one hand, and by the wall region of the main body (9) of the vehicle component (8), on the other hand, is formed. The light source support (2) has the at least one light source received in the housing, at least in regions, and the housing includes at least one light outlet region (5, 5′), via which light emitted by the at least one light source can be decoupled from the housing.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a light assembly of a vehicle is provided herein. The light assembly includes an array of light sources and a plurality of light-directing elements, each configured to direct light received from the light sources in an associated direction. A sensor arrangement is configured to sense a user-supplied action and a controller determines which light sources to activate in response to the sensed user-supplied action.

A vehicle badge is provided herein. The badge includes one or more light sources configured to illuminate in a pseudorandom sequence. Each respective light source illuminates in a first illumination sequence defined by a first set of parameters and a subsequent second illumination sequence defined by a second set of parameters. A controller is operably coupled with the light sources and has a counter therein. The counter determines the subsequent illumination sequence while the first illumination sequence occurs.

Provided is a vehicle including a curtain device; an inputter; a communicator configured to recognize current position information; and a processor configured to determine whether a current position is a position before entering a tunnel based on the current position information and map information, and upon determining that the current position is the position before entering the tunnel, control to open the curtain device, and configured to, in response to a selection command of an automatic light on/off mode for automatically turning on a lamp being received through the inputter, change an opening/closing mode of the curtain device to an automatic opening/closing mode, and upon the lamp being in an on-state, control opening of the curtain device.

In one aspect, an armrest lighting control device of a vehicle according to the present disclosure comprises a switch controller configured to produce a lighting color change effect or produce a fade-in/fade-out effect or an effect of turning off lighting by outputting a lighting-off signal from a lighting turning-off position of a switch lighting unit on the basis of a sensor signal from an acceleration sensor made by detecting a change in upward/downward armrest change angle of an armrest having the switch lighting unit directed toward a rear seat.
