A cooperative adaptive lighting system for motor vehicles in which a vehicle transmits its geographic coordinates and receives similar coordinates from other vehicles, pedestrians, and stationary warning devices. Using the coordinates, the vehicle computes distances, and relative position more specifically, to those entities. When the distances become sufficiently small, indicating that the entities fall within headlight range, the vehicle alters its headlight beams to either (1) throw more light on an entity, (2) reduce light reaching the entity as appropriate, or (3) change a lighting pattern as appropriate.

Cooperative adaptive lighting system using vehicle to target or object communication

A dual direction light pipe includes a first section having a first set of prisms oriented to reflect a portion of the light within the first section of the light pipe in a first direction and a second section having a second set of prisms oriented to reflect a portion of the light within the second section of the light pipe in a second direction.
