A light system having: (a) a plurality of light sources connected to a vehicle and creating light that radiates away from the vehicle so that the light substantially surrounds the vehicle; and (b) one or more sensors that detect light from another light source; and wherein one or more of the plurality of light sources are turned off in a direction of the another light source while some of the plurality of light sources remain on so that a tunnel having a reduction or absence of light is formed in the direction of the another light source between the plurality of light sources that remain on.

Light system, method of forming tunnels of light, a mobile 360&#xb0; light system, and a method of cleaning the mobile 360&#xb0; light system

The present invention relates to an optical element (), an optical module and a vehicle. The optical element () comprises: a light incident section () for receiving light directly from a light source; a light exit section () having a focal plane (P); and a third section () that directs light from the light incident section () toward the light exit section () in a predetermined manner to generate a predetermined low beam distribution or high beam distribution, where the optical element () is implemented integrally.

Optical element, optical module, and vehicle

The present invention relates to an optical arrangement system for an automotive headlamp that includes a first low-beam module adapted to generate a first luminous intensity distribution with a kink or elbow feature where the low-beam module includes: a high luminous source to emit light along an optical axis; a reflector for reflecting the light emitted from the at least one high luminous source forward; a projection lens having a height of about 10 mm that is arranged in operative relationship with the reflector; a folder arranged in an optical path between the reflector and the projection lens where the folder includes a bump feature to facilitate the first luminous intensity distribution generation with application of the kink or elbow feature; and where the reflector has a reflection surface which features an elliptical surface whose center axis is not aligned with the optical axis.

Bezel apparatus for use with vehicle lamps are disclosed. A disclosed bezel for a vehicle lamp includes a skeleton defining a portion of the bezel. The skeleton is configured to provide structural integrity to the bezel. The bezel also includes a film configured to cover the skeleton. The film comprises a first side configured to contact the skeleton and a second side opposite to the first side and including a visual design. The bezel also includes a coupling mechanism configured to couple the film to the skeleton to provide a completed bezel.

Bezel apparatus for use with vehicle lamps and related methods

A method of aiming a light module for a vehicle, the method including projecting at least one projected shape from a high definition pixel light source onto a receiving area of an aimer; determining the center point or edges of the high definition pixel light source based on the at least one projected shape; and adjusting the orientation of the light module to align the high definition pixel light source in a desired orientation.

Method of aiming a high definition pixel light module

A headlamp assembly, an optical system and a method for generating a hybrid luminous intensity are provided. The headlamp includes a low beam assembly and a high beam assembly. The low beam assembly is configured to generate a low beam distribution. The low beam assembly includes a plurality of low beam modules including at least one high luminance source optically configured to emit a first luminous intensity distribution and at least one light source optically configured to emit a second luminous intensity distribution. The high beam assembly includes one or more high beam modules.
