Optoelectronic semiconductor chip and headlamp having such a semiconductor chip
In at least one embodiment, the optoelectronic semiconductor chip includes a semiconductor layer sequence having an active layer configured to generate a primary radiation having a main wavelength less than 500 nm. The semiconductor chip contains a first conversion element configured to generate a first secondary radiation and a second conversion element configured to generate a second secondary radiation. The semiconductor layer sequence is divided into segments that can be controlled electrically independently of each other and that are arranged laterally adjacent to each other. The conversion elements are attached to main radiation sides of the segments. The first secondary radiation is colored light and the second secondary radiation white light.
VEHICLE ROOF RACK SYSTEM
A vehicle is provided that includes a body defining a roof. A roof rack is operably coupled to the roof through a plurality of mounting features and configured to support cargo. A load cell is positioned on each of the mounting features and configured to sense a load on the roof rack associated with the cargo. A controller is in communication with the load cells and an electronic device and a light source is positioned proximate each of the mounting features. The light source is configured to emit light based on the load sensed by the load cell.
LED FOR THE EMISSION OF ILLUMINATION RADIATION
An LED includes a first active region for the emission of a first primary radiation and a second active region for the emission of a second primary radiation, separate connections, a first phosphor for the at least partial conversion of the first primary radiation into a first conversion radiation in such a way that the first phosphor forms a first emitting surface of the LED for the emission of a first illumination radiation, and a second emitting surface for the emission of a second illumination radiation, which has a different spectral profile than the first illumination radiation, the second illumination radiation originating from the second primary radiation, and the emitting surfaces being shaped and arranged in a plan view, looking at the LED counter to a main emitting direction thereof, such that an outer of the emitting surfaces as a continuous surface area encloses an inner of the emitting surfaces.
Photoluminescent vehicle panel
A vehicle illumination apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus comprises at least one aperture disposed in a panel of the vehicle. A light source is disposed proximate the aperture and configured to emit a first emission having a first wavelength. A first photoluminescent portion is disposed proximate the panel substantially within the aperture and configured to emit a second emission having a second wavelength in response to receiving the first emission.
REAR LIGHTING AND/OR SIGNALING DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE, AND REAR LIGHTING AND/OR SIGNALING LIGHT PROVIDED WITH SUCH A DEVICE
The present invention relates to a rear lighting and/or signaling device, notably for a motor vehicle, comprising a light source, a transmission surface and means for distributing at least a part of the light from the source on the transmission surface, the distribution means comprising a matrix of micromirrors that can each be driven according to at least two different inclination positions. Another source is present and a mode of operation allows the illumination of a part of the micromirrors by the source and another part by the source.
HYBRID VEHICLE
A hybrid vehicle includes an engine, a fuel tank, a motor, a battery, a charger, and a notification mechanism. The battery is configured to supply electric power to the motor. The charger is configured to carry out external charging that charges the battery by use of electric power from an external power source. The notification mechanism is configured to notify, to an outside of the vehicle, information on a use index indicative of a degree of use of external charging in a predetermined time period.
STATUS INDICATOR FOR AN AUTONOMOUS AGRICULTURAL VEHICLE
An indicator system for an autonomous agricultural vehicle includes a multicolor lighting assembly. The indicator system includes a controller comprising a memory operatively coupled to a processor. The processor is configured to select a status indication from a plurality of status indications that corresponds to a current operating state of a plurality of operating states. The processor is configured to output a second signal indicative of instructions to control the multicolor lighting assembly based on the status indication. The multicolor lighting assembly emits a light in response to the second signal.
RUNNING BOARD ILLUMINATION SYSTEM WITH PASSIVE MARKER LIGHT GLOW
A running board illumination system is provided for a motor vehicle. That running board illumination system includes a first illumination element and an optical lens for directing light emitted by the first illumination element onto a running board of the motor vehicle. That optical lens may further include a fluorescent coating to provide a passive marker light glow when the first illumination element is extinguished.
Light module for a motor vehicle comprising a light guide
A light module for a motor vehicle comprising: a light guide with an input face and at least two branches each extending from the input face according to a specific length and a specific section; at least one light source arranged at the input face of the light guide, the input face being adapted to couple light rays emitted by the light source in the light guide; wherein the two branches are contiguous over a part of their length from the input face to a determined point of separation, the two sections of the branches overlapping over a zone of intersection which is present from the input face to the determined point of separation. The two sections are substantially constant along the branches from the input face over a length greater than or equal to the length of the branches between the input face and the determined point of separation.
LIGHT GUIDE ASSEMBLY AND LIGHTING AND/OR SIGNALING APPARATUS
The present disclosure provides a light guide assembly. The assembly includes: a light guide body part having a light exit face and a light distribution face; a first light incidence part having a first end and a second end on which at least one first light guiding unit is provided, the first light guiding unit being arranged to receive a first light and direct the first light into the light guide body part; a second light incidence part having a first end and a second end on which at least one second light guiding unit is provided, the second light guiding unit being arranged to receive a second light and direct the second light into the light guide body part, wherein the light distribution face is arranged to reflect the first/second light directed into the light guide body part towards the light exit face.
