A vehicle lighting system includes a light assembly and an electronic controller. The light assembly includes one or more lights configured to illuminate an external area that is in a vicinity of the vehicle. The electronic controller is programmed to receive a battery status signal from a battery of the vehicle. The electronic controller is further programmed to control the light assembly to illuminate the one or more lights to display a status of the battery when the vehicle is in a predetermined condition. The predetermined condition is at least one of a condition in which a remote electronic device is within a vicinity of the vehicle, a condition in which the vehicle has transitioned from a locked state to an unlocked state, and a condition in which the vehicle is about to be transitioned from the locked state to the unlocked state.

A motor vehicle includes an environment illuminating device for emitting light toward the ground in the environment of the motor vehicle. The environment illuminating device includes one or more luminous modules, each of which is configured to generate a light distribution on the ground. A respective luminous module includes an image generator configured to generate light radiation from light from an illuminant, the light radiation containing two-dimensional image information concerning, firstly, a symbol representation and, secondly, a light pattern and/or a homogeneous area with a substantially constant luminance. Furthermore, the respective luminous module includes an optical device, on which the light radiation from the image generator is incident.

A vehicular lighted exterior door handle system includes a lighted exterior door handle assembly having a light module, which includes a circuit board and at least three linearly arranged illumination sources at the circuit board. When the illumination sources are actuated, light emitted by each of the illumination sources is emitted outboard away from the door of the equipped vehicle. With the lighted exterior door handle assembly mounted at the door of the equipped vehicle, and when the illumination sources are actuated with the door of the equipped vehicle unlocked, the light module emits light in a first pattern. With the lighted exterior door handle assembly mounted at the door of the equipped vehicle, and when the illumination sources are actuated with the door of the equipped vehicle locked, the light module emits light in a second pattern that is different from the first pattern.

A small-sized vehicle-mounted projector light system including an illuminating module having a light source, a collimating lens and a film arranged in sequence, and an imaging module; the imaging module includes a curved reflector being a concave mirror with positive focal power, and a first imaging lens. The main optical axis of the illuminating module passes through the reflective surface of the curved reflector, on one side of which the first imaging lens is positioned. The invention ensures an appropriate size of an one-way dimension, no consequence of the limited space within automobile structure during installation and design, and conveniency for arrangement; the curved reflector has positive focal power and can perfect focusing, not only ensuring good projection effect, but also decreasing the number of lenses with positive focal power in the system, and effectively reduce the volume and weight of the system.

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 refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a vehicle body supported by the chassis, a lift assembly, and a projector. The vehicle body defines a receptacle for storing refuse. The lift assembly is configured to selectively engage a waste container. The lift assembly is movable between a first position and a second position. The projector is positioned to emit light outwardly away from the refuse vehicle and proximate the lift assembly to define a target area.

A vehicle control device includes: a first behavior mode recognition unit that executes a first behavior mode recognition process of recognizing a first behavior mode of a target person based on an image captured by a first camera having a first resolution; a second behavior mode recognition unit that, when a distance between the vehicle and the target person is equal to or less than a predetermined distance, recognizes a second behavior mode of the target person based on an image captured by a second camera having a second resolution higher than the first resolution; a target person behavior recognition unit that recognizes a behavior of the target person against a vehicle based on the first behavior mode and the second behavior mode; and a control unit that executes predetermined control on the vehicle based on the behavior of the target person.

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 method, an apparatus and a system for lamp control of vehicle, the method includes: receiving, sent by a terminal device, position information of the terminal device, and obtaining position information of the vehicle; calculating a distance between the terminal device and the vehicle according to the position information of the terminal device and the position information of the vehicle; generating, when the distance is less than or equal to a preset distance, first information of the terminal device with respect to the vehicle, and turning on an outer lamp of the vehicle corresponding to a location of the terminal device according to the first information.

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.
