A vehicle lamp system includes a vehicle lamp, a first imaging device structured to be disposed outside a lamp room, and generate a first image, a second imaging device structured to be housed in the lamp room, and generate a second image, and a light distribution control device. The light distribution control device includes an information processor structured to acquire from an outside or generate information of a first light shielding part, and decide a second light shielding part, a control executer structured to execute light distribution control for forming a light distribution pattern including the second light shielding part, and a control regulator structured to control the vehicle lamp to form a light distribution pattern including the first light shielding part when at least one condition of a condition (i) to a condition (iv).

An illuminated vehicle sign comprises a receptacle having an internal cavity with a light reflective internal surface. A cover over an end of the receptacle comprises one or more orifices opening into the internal cavity from an outside of the receptacle. The orifices are dimensioned and/or relatively arranged in accordance with one or more markings or alphanumeric characters. The orifices provide for ingress of air into the internal cavity from the outside of the receptacle and for emission of light from the internal cavity. A vent in the receptacle is positioned relative to the orifices to provide for egress of the air from the internal cavity. A light source is disposed within the receptacle to emit the light through the internal cavity and out of the orifices. An apertured screen is disposed inside of the internal cavity that is spaced apart from the cover.

To avoid an adverse effect on the sensor by the heater. A controller for a heater installed in a vehicle lamp, where the controller detects a rising edge of a light emission period of a sensor light emitted from an object detection sensor built in the vehicle lamp, and starts supply of a drive voltage to the heater in accordance with the rising edge.

A method comprising: (a) heating a light module of a vehicle with a heater; (b) monitoring a temperature of the light module; (c) activating a communication sequence; and (d) performing the communication sequence so that a message is conveyed between a controller of the light module and a controller of the vehicle.

A removable light for a towed vehicle includes a housing with a low profile shape, an anchor, a safety tether strap, and lens protection features.

A vehicle monitoring apparatus including: a camera disposed in a vehicle lamp; a guide duct configured to guide outside air introduced into the vehicle; and a nozzle connected to the guide duct and configured to discharge the air to a front side of the camera, thereby improving stability and reliability.

A vehicle proctor includes a first sheet sized to cover a pair of headlights of the vehicle. A second sheet sized to be within 80% of the same surface area as the first sheet arranged in an opposing relationship. The first sheet and the second sheets are joined around their periphery. The first sheet has a heavier material than the second sheet. A flap is interconnected with the first sheet. The flap fits under the hood of the vehicle. The flap has an interior deformable material and has a thickness greater than the combination of the first and second sheets.

A light bar for a motor vehicle has a plurality of lights mounted to an elongated support member is rotatably connected to opposing end walls of a rectangular frame. An offset cam is connected to the support member and moved by an actuating mechanism between a first and second position which cause the support member and lights to rotate about an axis to corresponding first and second positions. When the support frame and lights are in a first position they are shielded by and substantially enclosed by the sides and ends of the rectangular frame, and when in a second position the lights extend above and generally parallel to the rectangular frame to shine above and forward of the rectangular frame. A power switch energizes the actuating mechanism to move the lights and support member between the first and second positions.

The invention relates to a cleaning device (20) for a lens glass (10) in particular of a vehicle, with an optically transparent lens glass (10), with a hydrophobic and dirt-repelling, optically transparent coating (25), which is applied on an outer side (11) of the lens glass (10), with at least one vibration element (21), which is coupled with the lens glass (10), wherein the at least one vibration element (21) can be activated by a control device (40), and with an optically transparent anti-fog device (30), which is arranged at an inner side (12) of the lens glass (10). Furthermore, a vehicle with at least one cleaning device (20) is specified within the scope of the invention.

A decorative grille for a front of a vehicle is provided. The decorative grille has a grille frame connectible to the vehicle front, and a lighting device. The decorative grille frame accommodates the lighting device. The lighting device is located entirely behind a point which is frontmost relative to the vehicle longitudinal direction of the decorative grille frame.
