A light for the exterior of a vehicle includes at least one illuminant and a lens. The illuminant emits light in an activated state that hits the lens directly or indirectly via a reflector. The lens is transparent to light in a first predetermined wavelength range and reflects light in a second different wavelength range when the illuminant is deactivated. The illuminant is at least one light-emitting diode (LED). The diode emits light in a third wavelength range, which is predetermined such that the emitted light, after transmission through the lens, is present in a predetermined fourth wavelength range that is at least different from the second wavelength region. The light can be used as part of a rear light in a vehicle.

A light assembly includes a housing, a light emitting diode (LED), and a hemispherical dome. The housing has a lens mounted thereon. The light LED is mounted within the housing and operable to emit light within a predetermined range of wavelengths and at an emission intensity toward the lens. The hemispherical dome mounted is within the housing between the LED and the lens. The hemispherical dome comprises a material that attenuates the emission intensity by a predetermined magnitude, and has an aperture formed therein and through which a portion of the light emitted from the LED may pass unattenuated.

A light-up handle grip is provided, wherein the light-up handle grip includes: a grip sleeve; a light housing, at least a portion of the light housing being light-penetrable, the light housing including a receiving room and a connection end portion, the connection end portion and the grip sleeve being integrally and non-detachably connected to each other in a mutually embedded manner; a light assembly received in the light housing and including at least one lighting member and a switch, the switch being connected to the at least one lighting member to control the at least one lighting member, light from the at least one lighting member being capable of passing through the light housing; and an operation member movably mounted to the light housing, operation of the operation member actuating the switch to turn on or turn off the at least one lighting member.

A lamp unit for illuminating a front through an outer lens includes a first light source disposed on a back side of the outer lens, a second light source disposed on the back side of the outer lens, a first light guide body configured to guide light from the first light source to the outer lens, and a second light guide body configured to guide light from the second light source to the outer lens. The second light guide body overlaps the first light guide body from a front side in a front view. The first light guide body protrudes outward from the second light guide body. A part of light from the first light guide body is transmitted through the second light guide body and guided to the outer lens.

This present application discloses a turn direction indicating jacket having a plurality of directional indicators independently actuatable via a switch and a portable power supply. The invention illuminates the lights in sequential fashion from the wearer's shoulder to his or her wrist with an arrowhead at the base, there ensuring that other motorists and pedestrians alike are aware of the wearer's presence in traffic and the wearer's intended traffic movement.

A rear combination lamp for a vehicle comprises: a first housing member that is opaque; a first light source inside the first housing member; a first lightguide abutting the first housing member and enclosing the first light source, a first taillight portion extending from the first lightguide; a structural member that is opaque and abuts the first lightguide on an opposite side from the first housing member; a second lightguide abutting the structural member on an opposite side from the first lightguide, a second taillight portion extending from the second lightguide; a second housing member that is opaque and that abuts the second lightguide on an opposite side from the structural member; and a second light source inside the second housing member, wherein the second lightguide encloses the second light source.

A vehicle lamp includes a clearance lamp and an illumination unit for an active sensor. The illumination unit includes a near-infrared light source and a photoconductor. The photoconductor receives emitted light from the near-infrared light source and emits illumination light having a predetermined light distribution from an emission surface. The photoconductor is disposed such that a rear surface thereof faces a light emitting surface of the clearance lamp, and emits, from the emission surface, emitted light from the clearance lamp which is received at the rear surface.

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.
