Aircraft passenger reading light having a visible and infrared light source

An aircraft passenger reading light comprises at least one reading light source, which is arranged for emitting visible light in a reading light emission direction; and at least one infrared light source, which is arranged for emitting infrared light in an infrared light emission direction. The infrared light emission direction is inclined with respect to the reading light emission direction.

Lighting fixture

A lighting fixture includes a light source holder, a pair of position adjustors, and an outer shell. The light source holder holds a light source. The position adjustors are arranged to face each other and interpose the light source holder between themselves and supports the light source holder to allow the light source holder to rotate around a first virtual axis defined as a virtual axis passing through the position adjustors. The outer shell has an opening in which the light source holder and the position adjustors are arranged and supports the position adjustors to allow the position adjustors to rotate around a second virtual axis defined by a normal to an opening plane of the opening. The first virtual axis intersects with the second virtual axis and is located either within or behind the opening plane.

Illumination module for vehicle

An illumination module configured for mounting at a vehicle includes at least one illumination source and an optic. The optic is a three dimensional single formed optic that is formed such that, when the illumination source is operated and when the illumination module is disposed at a side of a vehicle, the optic provides projection of an icon, a logo and/or indicia at a ground region at or near the side of the vehicle. The optic includes one of (a) a lens optic configured such that light emitted by the illumination source, when activated, passes through the lens optic to provide projection of the icon, the logo and/or indicia, and (b) a reflector optic configured such that light emitted by the illumination source, when activated, reflects off the reflector optic to provide the selected projection of the icon, the logo and/or indicia.
