A vehicle applique lighting system includes an applique cover of a vehicle; a light source aft the applique cover; and a reflector having a portion that is outside a perimeter of the applique cover. The reflector is configured to reflect light from the light source on the first side to an opposite, second side of the applique cover.

In a camera device, light is emitted from a turn lamp, a caution lamp, and a welcome lamp. Here, the turn lamp, the caution lamp, and the welcome lamp are provided in a lamp unit. Thus, it is possible to reduce a space between the turn lamp, the caution lamp, and the welcome lamp and reduce the arrangement space of the turn lamp, the caution lamp, and the welcome lamp.

A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror reflective element and an illumination module that includes an illumination source and a freeformed lens optic. When the illumination source is operated to emit light, emitted light passes through the freeformed lens optic. The freeformed lens optic is configured such that, with the vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly mounted at a side of a vehicle, light emitted by the illumination source that passes through the freeformed lens optic provides ground lighting that illuminates a ground region located at the side of the equipped vehicle. The ground lighting includes (a) ground illumination of the illuminated ground region and (b) within the ground illumination of the illuminated ground region, a logo formed by the freeformed lens optic. The logo formed by the freeformed lens optic has a light intensity greater than any light intensity of the ground illumination of the illuminated ground region.

A light system for a vehicle is provided herein. The light system includes first and second light sources. A lens is configured to create a first illumination pattern when the first light source is activated and a second illumination pattern when the second light source is activated. A third light source is configured to create a third illumination pattern that extends vehicle outward of the first and second illumination patterns. A controller is configured to activate the first light source when a front door of the vehicle is opened and activate the second light source when a rear door of the vehicle is opened.

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.

In various embodiments, a holding device for lamps in vehicle lights is provided. The holding device may include a plate-like section that is provided with at least one receptacle for a lamp, and socket contacts for the energy supply of the lamp arranged in the receptacle. The at least one receptacle is realized in such a way that it provides space for different types of lamps.

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.

An improved brake light assembly is a brake light with a housing and internal light emitting diodes for attachment in the back window of a vehicle that illuminates when the brake pedal is depressed. When the Light Emitting Diodes are illuminated, the words “No Texting” are formed.

A vehicular exterior lighting system includes a lighting module disposed at a side of a vehicle. The lighting module includes at least one light emitting diode. The lighting module is operable to emit light that is viewable by a person exterior the side of the vehicle who is viewing the side of the vehicle. The lighting module emits white light responsive to a signal from a remote device to provide ground illumination of a ground region at the side of the vehicle at which the lighting module is disposed, and the lighting module (i) emits a first color of light responsive to a door lock signal and (ii) emits a second color of light responsive to a door unlock signal. The first color of light is different than the second color of light.

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.
