The present invention relates to a light assembly for a vehicle comprising: a housing; a lens covering the housing; a plurality of light sources arranged in the housing; wherein the plurality of light sources comprises at least one first light source, at least one second light source and at least one third light source; and a reflector body mounted in the housing; wherein the reflector body comprises a reflector element and different zones for each of the at least one light sources; wherein light emitted by the at least one first light source is captured by the reflector element which reflects the light towards the lens, the lens directing the light generally downward towards the ground area when the light assembly is attached to the vehicle, light emitted by the at least one second light source is passed through an aperture in the reflector body without reflection of the emitted light, and light emitted from the at least one third light source is captured by the reflector body which reflects and directs the light, in particular, horizontally towards the lens, with the lens in particular directing the light generally horizontal, and a light collector is located between the reflector body and the housing; wherein the light collector captures and transmits the light emitted from at least one of the at least one light sources, a rear view device and a vehicle with at least one light assembly.

LIGHTING DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE, MOTOR VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A LIGHTING DEVICE

The present disclosure relates to a lighting device for a motor vehicle having at least one exterior light and a control device. The exterior light has an illuminated area having at least two independently controllable segments, each comprising at least one light source, wherein the control device is designed to operate the exterior light in at least two operating modes, with each of which a geometric manifestation of the exterior light, defined by the light sources operated in the operating mode, is associated such that the total luminous intensity of the exterior light is within a range limited by a minimum value and a maximum value.

Multifunction vehicle lamp

A lamp for a vehicle or other object that includes multiple functions. In one aspect, the lamp includes a first circuit for emitting a first color light (such as red light), and at least a second circuit for emitting a second color of light (such as amber light). In another aspect, the lamp optionally includes a microcontroller that may be programmed to control the activation of the different colored lamp circuits based on lamp location information, and based on an operating mode.

A second light source, a second incidence section and a second reflecting section in a vehicle lamp are disposed closer to a light guide section than a first light source, a first incidence section and a first reflecting section, a stepped section is provided between the first reflecting section and the second reflecting section, and the first reflecting section is disposed at above the stepped section and the second reflecting section is disposed at below the stepped section when seen from a side of the first incidence section and a side of the second incidence section.

Automotive lamp

Multiple light sources are arranged in an array. A light guide member receives light emitted from the multiple light sources on its back face, and outputs the light thus received from its front face. The light guide member has a base portion such that its back face faces the multiple light sources and such that it extends in the array direction of the multiple light sources. Multiple back-face protrusions and multiple front-face protrusions are formed such that they protrude from the back face and the front face of the base portion. The front-face protrusion has multiple continuous faces in the circumferential direction along the front face of the base portion.

Method of communicating between work machines using li-fi communication protocol

An agricultural work vehicle includes a chassis, a cab mounted to the chassis and including a work space for an operator to control the work vehicle, and a controller for controlling operation of the work vehicle. The work vehicle further includes a lighting system having at least one array field light for illuminating an area on or around the work vehicle. A light control module is disposed in electrical communication with the controller and is configured to operably control the at least one array field light. The controller transmits a signal to the light control module, and the at least one array field light transmits a light signal corresponding to the signal which is receivable by a receiving module on another work vehicle or implement.

Vehicle signal light

Provided is a vehicle signal light in which a person with protanopia (p-type color vision deficiency) can perceive whether or not the vehicle signal light, e.g., a stop lamp, a tail lamp, or the like, is turned on. The vehicle signal light includes a first light source configured to emit red light and a second light source configured to emit amber light. The first light source and the second light source are simultaneously turned on and are configured to emit light with a higher luminous intensity in response to a braking operation, and the emission intensity of the first light source is higher than that of the second light source.

The condition responsive vehicular taillight is a safety device. The condition responsive vehicular taillight incorporates a vehicle and a control circuit. The control circuit mounts in the vehicle. The control circuit senses changes in the momentum of the vehicle. The control circuit generates a visual indication of the changes in the momentum of the vehicle. The visual indication is visible from the exterior of the vehicle. The visual indication is visible when viewed from the rear side of the vehicle.

EXTERIOR LIGHT AND CHARGE INDICATOR

Electric vehicles indicate charge levels in different ways. A lighting control module is communicatively is configured to illuminate an exterior light of an electric vehicle to indicate a charge status of a battery for the electric vehicle. The charge status is indicated based on varying an intensity of the exterior light, based on illuminating a subset of the exterior lights, and/or based on an animation. The display of the charge indicator varies based on a location of the vehicle, the presence of a person in proximity to the vehicle, and/or a charger connected to the vehicle.

Light irradiation control apparatus and method of light irradiation control

An object is to provide a light-irradiation technique that are capable of making the driver of a vehicle around a vehicle platoon aware of changes in the vehicle configuration of the vehicle platoon. During no changes in the vehicle configuration of a vehicle platoon, a controller performs control in such a manner that an irradiation device of the vehicle casts light in a steady-state mode common in the vehicle platoon. In a process where the vehicle merges with another of the vehicle alone or another of the vehicle platoon, the controller performs control in such a manner that the irradiation device of the merging vehicle casts light in a transition mode. In a process where the vehicle leaves the vehicle platoon, the controller performs control in such a manner that the irradiation device of the leaving vehicle casts light in the transition mode.
