An alarm device for a vehicle has a sensor section detecting that the hand of a passenger approaches an opening and closing operation section H and sending an operation detecting signal, a vehicle detector detecting another vehicle approaching from behind and sending a vehicle detecting signal, a vibration unit vibrating the opening and closing operation section H, a lamp section arranged on a pillar and displaying a warning sign with the irradiation of light, and a ECU (Electric Control Unit). When the ECU receives the vehicle detecting signal and the operation detecting signal, the vibration unit operates and a warning sign is displayed on the lamp section. Thereby, when another vehicle approaches, it is possible to prevent the passenger from opening operation of the door body.

A vehicle trim light assembly is provided herein. The trim light assembly includes a substrate mated to a housing. A light source and luminescent structure are disposed within the substrate and housing. The light source provides light at a first wavelength. The luminescent structure is excited by light at the first wavelength thereby emitting light at a second wavelength through the housing to provide lighting to an occupant within the vehicle.

The present disclosure provides an automotive lamp, and more particularly, to an automotive lamp capable of informing an ambient vehicle approaching from one side behind the vehicle of a vehicle state by irradiating light of a road pattern to indicate the vehicle state to an area behind the vehicle. The automotive lamp includes a lamp unit disposed in a rear lamp housing of a vehicle and a detection unit configured to detect whether a reverse shift stage is selected. The lamp unit is configured to irradiate a first light distribution pattern that forms a reversing light signal pattern in the rearward direction of the vehicle, and a second light distribution pattern that forms a road pattern on the rearward road surface of the vehicle. The first light distribution pattern and the second light distribution pattern are formed simultaneously, when the reverse shift stage is selected.

A vehicle includes a seat assembly having a seatback and a seat base. A side marker is positioned on the seat base. A light assembly is configured to emit light toward the side marker. The side marker emits light to an exterior of the vehicle when the vehicle is in a doors off configuration.

A lighting device includes a light source configure to irradiate excitation light and a vehicle glass configured to emit visible light through incident radiation of the excitation light, in which the vehicle glass is configured to emit the visible light synchronously in an area of 30% or more by irradiation with the excitation light.

An integrated lighting insert is provided for multi-function automotive vehicle lighting that has minimal space requirements and provides different lighting functions in a single device with an electronic control module that can easily interface with vehicle electronics. The insert a housing and a plurality of light transmission portions, a plurality of light sources integrated into the housing, each one configured for a different predetermined function associated with a particular use of a condition of or a state of the automobile. An electrical circuit is used along with a communications bus and individual controller circuits associated with the light sources fix controlling the light functions.

A wireless doorsill plate with changeable display information and power-saving mechanism includes a baseplate, a battery module, a radio frequency module, a display module and an energy-saving module. A circuit board is provided on the baseplate, the battery module is disposed on the baseplate and electrically connected to the circuit board, and the battery module is used to generate an electric power. The radio frequency module is disposed on the circuit board and used to receive an activation signal to generate a wireless signal. The display module is assembled on the circuit board and has a backlight unit connected to the battery module. The energy-saving module is disposed on the circuit board and electrically connected to the battery module. According to the wireless signal the energy-saving module reduces the electric power generated by the battery module in order to turn on the backlight unit.

A projection system for a vehicle, in particular for an ambient lighting device for generating a plurality of light cones for illuminating the ground in the surroundings of the vehicle, includes at least one light source and a microlens array. The microlens array includes an optical axis, a first portion with at least one first channel and a second portion with at least one second channel. The projection system includes an optical device that is provided downstream of the microlens array and is arranged at least in the area of the first portion, with the distance between the microlens array and the optical device being less than 20 mm. Light emitted by the light source, which falls through the at least one first channel of the first portion, is deflected by the optical device by a first angle with respect to the optical axis and forms a first light cone, and light emitted by the light source, which falls through the at least one second channel of the second portion, is deflected by a second angle with respect to the optical axis, which differs from the first angle, and forms a second light cone.

A proximity alert system for a vehicle having a mobility access device that is moveable between a stowed position and a deployed position may include a control system, a sensor system, and an annunciator system. The control system operates the sensor system to detect a presence of an object within a defined sensing region exterior to the vehicle when the mobility access device is in the stowed position. The control system operates the annunciator system when the sensor system detects the presence of the object within the defined sensing region.

When information regarding a situation inside and outside a vehicle is determined to match a display change condition, a control unit (32) changes a display mode of information displayed outside the vehicle by controlling a projector device (4a) or a body light device (4b).
