A vehicle luminous module intended to generate a light beam along an optical axis includes primary light guides each including an entrance dioptric interface and an exit, and a light source arranged facing an entrance dioptric interface. A projecting assembly includes a focal region and an exit member, the projecting assembly being arranged so that the light rays passing through said focal region and reaching the exit member are imaged in a projection field downstream of said projecting assembly. The exits of the guides are arranged level with the focal region. The luminous module includes at least one secondary light guide distinct from the primary light guides, and arranged so as to deviate light rays generated by the light source so that they do not reach the exit member, and/or so as to spread said light rays in said projection field.

A vehicle light guide 40 that guides light from a light source 10 toward a projection lens 30 includes an incident surface 41 on which light from the light source 10 is incident, a reflective surface 45 that reflects light from the incident surface 41, and an exit surface 44 that outputs light reflected on the reflective surface 45. The reflective surface 45 includes, on at least a part thereof, a light diffusing part 50 where at least either one of a plurality of convex parts 51 and a plurality of concave parts 52 that diffuse light are formed.

A vehicle lamp includes a first lamp unit for forming a first region of a beam pattern, and a second lamp unit for forming a second region of the beam pattern. The first lamp unit and the second lamp unit are arranged in a left-right direction. Each of the first lamp unit and the second lamp unit includes a plurality of lamp modules arranged in the left-right direction, each of the plurality of lamp modules including a light source unit including a light source and a light path adjusting unit. A position of light irradiation region formed by the light emitted from each of the plurality of lamp modules is particularly configured depending on a position of the light source with respect to a rear focal point of the light path adjusting unit.

A condenser lens includes an exit surface divided into a plurality of light controlling surfaces. The exit surface includes a first exit region and a second exit region. The first exit region includes a plurality of first light controlling surfaces arrayed in a predetermined direction. The second exit region is located side by side with the first exit region and includes a plurality of second light controlling surfaces arrayed in the predetermined direction. A border between adjacent first light controlling surfaces and a border between adjacent second light controlling surfaces are out of alignment in the predetermined direction.

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.

A vehicular lamp includes a first light source that emits light forming a passing light distribution pattern; a second light source that is disposed forward of the first light source and emits light forming a traveling light distribution pattern; a reflector that reflects the light from the first and the second light sources; a first lens that projects the light reflected forward by the reflector; and a second lens that transmits the light from the second light source toward the reflector. The second light source and the first light source are disposed on the same plane. The reflector has first and second reflective surfaces. The first reflective surface reflects the light from the first light source to the first lens. The second reflective surface is disposed forward of the first reflective surface and reflects the light from the second light source through the second lens to the first lens.

A vehicle headlamp optical system, a vehicle headlamp, and a vehicle. The vehicle headlamp optical system comprises a plurality of modules and a light distribution lens that is disposed in front of each module. The plurality of modules comprise at least one high-beam module, at least one main low-beam module, and at least one auxiliary low-beam module. The light distribution lenses are narrow, long light distribution lenses. Each module is disposed at an interval along the length direction of the light distribution lenses. Thus, the miniaturization and diversified design of a vehicle headlamp can be achieved.

An example includes a system, having: an illumination source configured to produce illumination light; and a spatial light modulator (SLM) optically coupled to the illumination source, the SLM comprising an array of picture elements. The SLM is configured to: receive the illumination light; direct, by a first portion of the picture elements, on state light in a first direction; and direct, by a second portion of the picture elements, off state light in a second direction. The example system includes imaging optics optically coupled to the SLM, the imaging optics configured to receive the on state light from the SLM and to project an image as an image portion of a beam; and non-imaging optics optically coupled to the SLM, the non-imaging optics configured to receive the off state light from the SLM and to project the off state light as part of the beam.

A condenser lens includes an exit surface divided into a plurality of light controlling surfaces. The exit surface includes a first exit region and a second exit region. The first exit region includes a plurality of first light controlling surfaces arrayed in a predetermined direction. The second exit region is located side by side with the first exit region and includes a plurality of second light controlling surfaces arrayed in the predetermined direction. A border between adjacent first light controlling surfaces and a border between adjacent second light controlling surfaces are out of alignment in the predetermined direction.

Provided is a light-emitting cell array including a first emission region including a first light-emitting cell provided in a first direction, a second emission region including a plurality of second light-emitting cells, the plurality of second light-emitting cells being stacked on the first light-emitting cell in a second direction intersecting with the first direction and provided in the first direction, and a third emission region including a plurality of third light-emitting cells different from the plurality of second light-emitting cells, the plurality of third light-emitting cells being stacked on the plurality of second light-emitting cells in the second direction and provided in the first direction.
