A vehicle headlight system can include a headlight controller and a lamp unit incorporating a high beam module, which can emit favorable marking lights while the headlight controller associates each of a shading driver and a swivel structure with a shading width setter and a swivel setter, respectively. When a forward vehicle does not exist in a forward direction, the headlight systems can provide favorable light distribution patterns by overlapping the light distribution pattern projected from the high beam module with each of light distribution patterns for a high and low beam. When the forward vehicle exists, the headlight system can prevent the lamp unit from emitting a glare type light to the forward vehicle. Thus, the disclosed subject matter can provide vehicle headlight systems, which can emit favorable light patterns toward a pedestrian as a marking light, and which can provide favorable light distribution patterns to drive at night.

Each of a pair of left and right vehicle head lamps includes a plurality of optical units in a lamp chamber. A variable light distribution type optical unit that changes a light distribution mode of a high beam depending on a surrounding state and a traveling state of a vehicle is disposed in a first vehicle head lamp on a passenger seat side, and a figure drawing optical unit capable of forming a desired figure on a road surface in front of the vehicle by emitted light is disposed at a position symmetrical to the variable light distribution type optical unit in a second vehicle head lamp on a driver seat side.

A projection lamp for illumination includes a pump radiation unit configured to emit pump radiation, a phosphor element for the at least partial conversion of the pump radiation into a conversion light, and a micromirror array having a multiplicity of micromirror actuators which are arranged in the form of a matrix. The projection lamp is set up such that, during operation, the phosphor element is irradiated by the pump radiation from the pump radiation unit. The conversion light which is thereupon emitted by the phosphor element at least partially makes up an illumination light, which illumination light is guided for adjusting a light distribution over the micromirror actuators. The micromirror actuators are illuminated inhomogeneously with the illumination light at respective times to support the light distribution that is adjusted using the micromirror array.

A vehicle lamp includes a light source configured to draw a road surface, a projection lens configured to transmit light emitted from the light source, and a movable shade disposed in the vicinity of a rear focal point of the projection lens. The movable shade includes at least one plate-shaped shade which has a light-shielding surface along a direction orthogonal to an optical axis of the projection lens. The at least one plate-shaped shade is formed with at least one light-transmitting part having an enclosed shape.

A lighting device includes: a light emission part; a reflector disposed above the light emission part and configured to reflect a first portion of light emitted from the light emission part; a first lens having a first incident face through which light reflected by the reflector enters; a second lens disposed higher than the first lens, and having a second incident face through which a second portion of the light emitted from the light emission part enters, wherein the second incident face is father than the first incident face from the light emission part; a first light shielding member disposed between the first lens and the second lens; a second light shielding member between the light emission part and the first lens; a third light shielding member between the light emission part and the second lens; and an actuator configured to move the second and third light shielding members.

A pair of left and right vehicle headlights (1R, 1L) having a bilaterally symmetrical arrangement of optical units therein. A variable-light-distribution optical unit (ADB) is arranged inside the vehicle headlight (1R) on the passenger side and makes the high beam light distribution mode variable in accordance with the surroundings and travel state of the vehicle. A graphic drawing optical unit (RM) capable of forming a desired graphic on the road surface ahead of the vehicle, by using emitted light, is arranged at a position inside the vehicle front light (1L) on the driver side, said position corresponding to the arrangement position of the variable-light-distribution optical unit. As a result, distortion in graphics drawn on the road surface is suppressed and the impact of pitching can be reduced.

An illumination apparatus of mobility that implements various illumination functions includes a low beam and a high beam and provides a sense of operation when respective illumination functions are switched such that the design is upgraded.

An adaptive vehicle headlight is provided for being installed on a vehicle body for use. The adaptive vehicle headlight includes a light body, an optical lens, a driver, and a control unit. The optical lens, the driver, and the control unit are integrated into the light body. In practice, the optical lens can optionally include a light distributing member. The control unit can cause an operation of the driver according to a tilt angle of the vehicle body, such that the optical lens and/or the light distributing member are rotated to a predetermined angle, so as to produce an illumination pattern in a horizontal state.
