VEHICLE LIGHTING DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING LUMINANCE THEREOF
A vehicle lighting device and a method of controlling luminance thereof are provided. The vehicle lighting device includes a camera module configured to capture an image of the driver's face, a sensing unit configured to detect the surroundings of a vehicle, a lighting unit including at least one light source to illuminate the interior of the vehicle, and a controller. The controller is configured to acquire information on a daytime mode and a nighttime mode through the sensing unit, to acquire information on an infrared brightness level or information on the size of the pupil of the driver's eye based on the image of the driver's face captured by the camera module, and to control the luminance of the lighting unit in response to the acquired information.

VEHICLE SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY HAVING AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
A vehicle sun visor assembly includes a circuit board having a mounting surface. The vehicle sun visor assembly also includes a top-emitting light emitting diode (LED) mounted on the mounting surface of the circuit board. In addition, the vehicle sun visor assembly includes a light guide having a light emitting surface and a light receiving surface. The light receiving surface is substantially perpendicular to the light emitting surface, and the light guide is configured to receive light emitted from the top-emitting LED through the light receiving surface and to emit the light from the top-emitting LED through the light emitting surface toward a vehicle interior.
ILLUMINATION UNIT AND VEHICLE
An illumination unit for an interior chamber of a vehicle includes at least one light source integrated into a surface side of a sun shield facing towards an occupant in a non-usage position of the sun shield. The at least one light source emits light in the activated state which is directed towards the occupant. A covering element is provided for covering a light outlet surface of the light source.
