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.
VEHICLE VISIBILITY INCREASING SYSTEM
A vehicle visibility increasing system includes a vehicle having a rear window and a front window. A pair of light emitters is provided. One of the light emitters is positioned adjacent to and is directed outwardly of the rear window. One of the light emitters is positioned adjacent to and is directed outwardly of the front window. A power cord is electrically coupled to each of the light emitters. A power plug is electrically coupled to the power cord. A control is in electrical communication with the power cord and is actuated to turn the light emitters or off.
VEHICLE INFORMATION DISPLAY APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
A vehicle information display apparatus includes: at least one processor configured to receive a vehicle state of a vehicle, and detect a forward object ahead of the vehicle; a flip-dot display installed in the vehicle and configured to implement a pixel by rotating a flip disk; and an illumination module installed around the flip-dot display, and configured to illuminate a surface of the flip-dot display.
Vehicle light and vehicle equipped with vehicle light
A vehicle light installed in a vehicle includes: a main case having a front opening; a first light guide disposed in the main case; a first light source that emits light into the first light guide; and a headlamp disposed in the main case. The first light guide (i) is rod-shaped, (ii) includes a first extended section extending from the inboard side of the first light guide relative to the vehicle widthwise direction toward the outboard side and a second extended section that continues from the first extended section, curves back inwardly, and extends to the inboard side, and (iii) opens toward a longitudinal center line of the vehicle. The headlamp is disposed between the first extended section and the second extended section. The first extended section and the second extended section extend toward the longitudinal center line of the vehicle to a point beyond the headlamp.

Motor vehicle optical system having a plurality of controlled light emission subsystems and light guide that cooperate to provide at least one predetermed lighting function
An optical light emission system for a motor vehicle, the optical system comprising: a first light emission subsystem comprising a first set of light sources, and a second light emission subsystem comprising a second set of light sources and a light guide able to diffuse the light from said light sources of the second set of light sources outside the optical system. The light guide is arranged facing the first set of light sources such that the first set of light sources substantially radiates through the light guide outside the optical system.
