A vehicle lamp (10) with a progressive direction indicator function comprises a direction indicator zone divided into a series of illuminable portions. The direction indicator zone is generally C-shaped, comprising a head 68) and a pair of tails (64, 66), joined by the head (68), that extend in an inboard direction from the head. The tails (64, 66) extend beside each other in the inboard direction and are spaced apart along their length. The head (68) extends between the tails (64, 66) in a direction transverse to the inboard direction, the height of the head (68) in that transverse direction being greater than combined thicknesses of the tails (64, 66) in that transverse direction. To draw an observer's eye in an outboard direction, the illuminable portions are controllable in use to illuminate the direction indicator zone progressively in an outboard direction along the tails (64, 66) to the head (68), and then to illuminate the head convergently in a direction transverse to the outboard direction.

A vehicle lamp includes a plurality of light source modules that includes light sources including a plurality of light emitting elements that emit different colors of light and lens bodies disposed in front of the light sources, and the plurality of light source modules are disposed in a matrix manner in a plane to constitute at least one light emitting area.

A light emitting device including a lighting unit and a conversion material is disclosed. The conversion material is configured to convert a part of the invisible light emitted from the lighting unit into a visible light, which indicates that the lighting unit is in operation. The spectral energy of visible light is less than 20% of the spectral energy measured within a wavelength range of 200 nm to 380 nm.

A lighting module for a motor vehicle includes a carrier, such as a single printed circuit board, and a plurality of light sources configured to perform various functions selected from a group including door lock status, turn signal indication, blind spot warning indication and door latch handle illumination.

Methods, apparatus and systems are described herein. A light source includes a first light emitting diode (LED) die configured to emit a first die color and a second LED die configured to emit a second die color. A first filling is disposed over the first LED die. The first filling has a convex surface and includes a first phosphor such that the first die color is converted to a first illuminous color. A second filling is disposed over the second LED die. The second filling includes a second phosphor such that the second die color is converted to a second illuminous color that has a higher absorption energy than an illumination energy of the first illuminous color.

A light-emitting diode (LED) string includes an electrically conductive wire and a plurality of LEDs. The LEDs are electrically connected to the wire in series along an axial length of the wire. The LED string may include a solder layer, with the LEDs electrically connected to the wire via the solder layer. A tube having an optional phosphor coating may circumscribe the wire and LEDs. When connected to a surface, the LED string emits light in a band of at least 180 degrees with respect to the surface. A light assembly includes a first surface and a first LED string configured as set forth above. The light assembly may include a second LED string positioned with respect to the surface and having additional LEDs configured to illuminate in response to a second control signal from the controller.

A rear combination lamp installed on a vehicle comprises: a first rear lamp module installed on a later part of the rear side of the vehicle; and a second rear lamp module installed on a back door located at the rear side of the vehicle to be arranged adjacent to the first rear lamp module. The first rear lamp module includes a main light source and a sub-light source. The main light source generates light output from the first rear lamp module, and the sub-light source generates light provided to the second rear lamp module. The second rear lamp module includes a light reception unit and a light direction changing unit. The light reception unit receives light from the sub-light source. The light direction changing unit changes a progressing direction of light received in the light reception unit to output light to the outside.

A system for implementing strobing of existing vehicle hazard lights including an interface to a vehicle wiring harness configured to receive input to an existing vehicle flasher module, and a strobing circuit that responds to an activation signal from the vehicle wiring harness that is indicative of a hazard flasher deployment event by producing an electrical output through the interface to the vehicle wiring harness that causes a strobing of existing vehicle hazard lamps.

An example warning device can include: a plurality of light sources forming an array; a plurality of reflectors, with at least one reflector being associated with each of the plurality of lights; at least one lens for each of the plurality of lights; and an optical prism plate that directs light from one or more of the plurality of lights to one of a plurality of far field light spots.

The present disclosure relates an integrated module including a camera and a lamp, and may include a camera that acquires an image of a periphery of a vehicle and provide the image, at least one first lamp and at least one second lamp disposed at at least one location of an upper side and a lower side of the camera in a direction of a transverse axis of the camera, and a lamp controller that provides electrical energy for the first lamp to the first lamp and provides electrical energy for the second lamp to the second lamp according to daytime/nighttime determination information based on the image.
