A system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores program instructions executable by the processor to make a first determination to provide light to operate a vehicle and, based on the first determination, actuate a first set of lights. The memory stores program instructions executable by the processor to make a second determination to provide a communication, and, based on the second determination, actuate a second set of lights to provide the communication.

This vehicle lamp is provided with a light guide body (21) which guides and emits light incident from a light source (20). The light guide body (21) has an incident surface (211) where light from the light source (20) is incident, an emission surface (213) which emits the guided light, and a reflective surface (212) which internally reflects light incident from the incident surface (211) towards the emission surface (213). The reflective surface (212) is configured from multiple adjacently arranged reflective surfaces (212), and on the boundary surface (217) of multiple reflective surfaces (212), there are reflective steps (218) that internally reflect light in a scattered or diffused state.

The present technology relates to a vehicle that enables to improve designability while avoiding deterioration of safety and functionality of the vehicle.

The vehicle includes: a front line extending in a vehicle width direction on a front surface of a body; and a headlight arranged on left and right of the front surface, divided vertically by the front line, and configured to output a low beam from a portion above the front line and output a high beam from a portion below the front line. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a vehicle.

A method of controlling a pattern skin lighting device for a vehicle is provided. The method includes generating a plurality of random numbers and accumulating the number of continuous turn-on times for each lightening cell in an arrangement of the lightening cells configuring a pattern skin lighting device. Additionally, the method includes selecting a turn-on target lightening cell, lightening cells having an accumulative value of the number of continuous turn-on times that is a predetermined reference value or less, among the lightening cells corresponding to the generated random number, and turning on a light emitting element of the selected turn-on target lightening cell.

A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a lighting component having one or more light sources and one or more transparent facet bodies, each of which bodies has a surface consisting of a plurality of planar first facets. Light originating from the one or more light sources is radiated into the one or more transparent facet bodies as first luminous radiation. The first luminous radiation is at least partially refracted on first facets of the one or more transparent facet bodies and subsequently exits the lighting device as second luminous radiation in order to produce light distribution. One or more translucent optical components are located in the lighting device between the lighting component and the one or more transparent facet bodies.

Disclosed herein is a vehicle accessory grill comprising a plurality of edge protrusions, a front surface, a rear surface, a plurality of air apertures, and a plurality of lighting apertures. The grill also comprises a lighting system which may comprise a control module and a plurality of lamps. The plurality of lamps may include a plurality of high beam lamps, a plurality of low beam lamps, a plurality of daytime running lamps, and a plurality of turn lamps.

A vehicle includes a light assembly and an electric control module. The light assembly is assembled to an underbody of the vehicle. The light assembly has a light bar and an image projector. The light bar has a plurality of first light sources. The image projector has a housing that is fitted to a longitudinal end of the light bar. The housing has a circuit board and an emitting portion that houses a second light source. The circuit board is electrically connected to the second light source to regulate electric current to the light source. The electric control module is electrically connected to the light bar and the circuit board to provide electrical power to both the light bar and the image projector.

The invention relates to a vehicle light unit with a primary light device including a primary light module arranged in a primary housing, a secondary light device including a secondary light module arranged in a secondary housing, a primary part with a first portion and a second portion, the second portion being transparent, a secondary part with a first portion and a second portion, the second portion being transparent, and a logo. One of the primary part or secondary part includes an indexing device to position the primary part or secondary part relative to the other part with one of the primary part or secondary part partially overlapping the other part. The light unit further including a mounting surface for the logo with the mounting surface including an attachment device for attachment to one of the primary part or secondary part.

A lamp device suppresses attenuation and reflection of a radar wave attributable to a light guide body, does not change an electromagnetic wave radiation pattern, and does not impair a radar function. The lamp device includes: a light guide body covering a part of an electromagnetic wave radiation surface of a radar device; and a light source, wherein, when the thickness of the light guide body is denoted by TG, and the wavelength of a radiated electromagnetic wave from the radar device in the light guide body is denoted by λd, TG is set such that TG<λd/2 is satisfied when the reflection loss of the light guide body with respect to the radiated electromagnetic wave is below a transmission loss, and a reflection loss is −10 dB or less when the reflection loss is equal to or more than a transmission loss.

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.
