A LiDAR sensor unit is configured to detect information of an outside area of a vehicle with sensing light. A cover covers the LiDAR sensor unit so as to allow passage of the sensing light while forming a part of an outer surface of the vehicle. A strain gage is disposed on the cover and configured to output a strain signal corresponding to strain generated in the cover. A processor is configured to detect a foreign substance adhered to the cover based on the strain signal.

An aircraft headlight includes at least one visible light source for emitting a headlight light output; a light transmissive cover, at least partially covering the at least one visible light source; and at least one infrared emitter for emitting infrared radiation. At least 90% of radiation energy, comprised in the infrared radiation emitted by the at least infrared emitter, is emitted within a predefined wavelength range; and the light transmissive cover allows at least 25%, in particular at least 30%, more particularly at least 45%, of the radiation energy, which is emitted within the predefined wavelength range, to pass through the light transmissive cover.

The invention relates to a light device for a motor vehicle, the device including a housing, members for fastening the housing to a body of the motor vehicle, a plate arranged in the housing and supporting at least one light module, a device for manually adjusting the orientation of the housing relative to the fastening members of the motor vehicle, arranged outside the housing, and a device for dynamically adjusting the orientation of the plate relative to the housing, arranged inside the housing.

A light unit is configured in such a manner that a light guide is placed between a light source and a projection lens, and includes a first exit surface for emitting light for a low-beam light distribution pattern and a second exit surface for emitting light for an additional light distribution pattern that is added to form a high-beam light distribution pattern. The light guide is configured to be provided with a mirror surface portion on a connection surface extending toward the back of the unit from a lower edge of the first exit surface to an upper edge of the second exit surface. As a result, light from a light-emitting element that has been emitted through the second exit surface and reached the connection surface is reflected by the mirror surface portion to be used as the light for forming the additional light distribution pattern.

A light-transmitting assembly and a vehicle are provided in the disclosure. The light-transmitting assembly includes a light-transmitting substrate and a light source assembly. The light-transmitting substrate defines a mounting through-hole. The light source assembly is connected to the light-transmitting substrate and positioned at the mounting through-hole. The light source assembly includes a box, a lampshade, and a light-emitting element. The lampshade is detachably connected to the box. The lampshade and the box cooperatively define an accommodating space. The light-emitting element is received in the accommodating space. The light-transmitting assembly of the disclosure can be assembled and disassembled quickly and repeatedly, thereby realizing quick replacement of the light-emitting element.

A vehicle lighting unit ensures support rigidity of a substrate connection part in the front-rear direction without increasing components. The vehicle lighting unit includes a light source part, a power feeding member, a heat dissipation member, and a socket. The light source part has a light-emitting element, and a substrate connected to the light-emitting element. The power feeding member supplies power to the light source part. The heat dissipation member is mounted with the light source part. The socket is assembled on the rear side opposite to the front surface of the heat dissipation member mounted with the light source part. In the vehicle lighting unit, the substrate and the power feeding member are electrically connected by the substrate connection part. The heat dissipation member integrally has an extension support unit that supports at least the substrate connection part in placement in a front-rear direction of the heat dissipation member.

A lighting device disclosed in the embodiment of the invention includes a base member including a straight portion and a curved portion, a substrate including a first substrate disposed on the straight portion of the base member and a second substrate disposed on the curved portion; a plurality of light sources disposed on each of the first and second substrates, a resin layer including a first resin portion disposed on the first substrate and a second resin portion surrounding the second substrate, and a phosphor layer disposed on the resin layer, and an outer side surface of the second resin portion may include a curved surface.
