Vehicle exterior lighting systems with revealable fascia lamp assemblies

Vehicle exterior lighting systems may be equipped with fascia mounted lamp assemblies. The proposed systems are capable of controlling a fascia lamp assembly to reveal the lamp assembly within the vehicle fascia and then produce various lighting effects based on sensed vehicle conditions. Exemplary fascia lamp assemblies may include a conductive lens that can be charged in order to reveal the lamp assembly within the vehicle fascia.

Automotive Light

An automotive light comprising a lighting assembly which is located inside the rear body, is adapted to backlight a corresponding transparent or semi-transparent sector of the front half-shell, and comprises: a pair of light-guide bars made of photoconductive material, which extend toward each other inside the rear body, while remaining both substantially grazing the front half-shell, and have their respective proximal ends adjacent and aligned to one another; and a pair of electrically-powered light sources that are located within the rear body each adjacent to the distal end of a respective light-guide bar, and are oriented so as to direct the light produced inside the body of the facing light-guide bar; the proximal ends of both light-guide bars being shaped so as to form respective plate-like heads that are locally substantially coplanar to each other and are arranged inside the rear body one spaced beside the other, so as to form/delimit therebetween a small transversal slot, which is substantially straight and is inclined with respect to the local longitudinal axis of the same light-guide bars.

Lamp apparatus of vehicle and control method thereof

Provided are a lamp apparatus of a vehicle and a control method thereof. The lamp apparatus includes: a first integrated lamp installed at either the front or rear of a vehicle and having a plurality of lamps, one or more of which being turned on according to a lighting mode; a second integrated lamp installed at a position different from the installation position of the first integrated lamp and having a plurality of lamps, one or more of which being turned on; a travel direction input unit that receives a travel direction; a driving signal input unit that receives driving signals for turning on and off the lamps; and a lamp control unit that receives the travel direction to set the lighting modes of the first and second integrated lamps, and drives one or more of the plurality of lamps included in each of them.

Lighting device for vehicle

The present disclosure relates to a lighting device for a vehicle, including a housing unit positioned on a vehicle body and configured to have an opening, a light source unit positioned on the housing unit and configured to radiate light, a reflection unit provided in the housing unit and configured to reflect the light, radiated by the light source unit, by differently setting a reflection angle for each section, and a screen unit positioned on the housing unit and configured to cover the opening and implement grill lighting by transmitting the light reflected by the reflection unit.

Vehicle light assembly comprising flexible lighting strip

A vehicle light assembly comprising: a flexible lighting strip comprising a multitude of light-emitting diodes, wherein the flexible lighting strip is arranged to be bent around at least two, more preferred three linear independent axes; a light guiding structure comprising a light receiving surface and a primary light emission surface, wherein the light receiving surface receives light emitted by the flexible lighting strip, wherein the primary light emission surface emits at least a part of the light received via the light receiving surface, and wherein the light receiving surface is arranged to define a bending of the flexible lighting strip; a coupling structure that is arranged to mechanically couple the flexible lighting strip to the light receiving surface in accordance with the bending defined by the light receiving surface. The invention further describes a vehicle rear light or vehicle front light comprising the vehicle light assembly.
