A process for mounting a light component on a carrier. The light component includes a generally planar substrate, on a first face of which submillimetre-sized electroluminescent semiconductor elements are epitaxied in the form of a matrix. The process is noteworthy in that it eliminates the need for a layer of filler material between the component and the carrier, while providing good thermal and electrical conductivity between the component and the carrier and high mechanical strength.

A terrestrial vehicle lighting module which includes an electroluminescent source including at least one electroluminescent element, an electronic device designed to control the electroluminescent element, and an interposer electrically connecting the electroluminescent source and the electronic device.

Wiring of a high resolution light source

An object detection system for a motor vehicle is proposed. The system includes an array of electroluminescent light sources, an array of light sensors and a calculating unit. At least one of the electroluminescent light sources is able to emit a signal. At least one of the sensors is able to receive the emitted signal that has been reflected by an object. The calculating unit is able to calculate, by triangulation, the position of the object on the basis of the position, in one of the arrays of electroluminescent light sources, of at least one of the electroluminescent light sources able to emit a signal and on the basis of the position, in one of the arrays of light sensors, of at least one of the sensors able to receive the signal reflected by the object.

A luminous device for a motor vehicle, said device including a pixelized light source and an optical system that is arranged to project a pixelized light beam emitted by the pixelized light source, the optical system comprising a first mirror arranged to collect and reflect rays of the pixelized light beam emitted by the pixelized light source, a second mirror arranged to reflect the rays reflected by the first mirror, and a third mirror arranged to receive the rays reflected by the second mirror and to reflect these received rays so as to correct field aberrations. The invention enables improved projection of a pixelized light beam by a luminous motor-vehicle device.

Optical system for a pixelized light beam

An optical wireless communication system for a vehicle comprises a photonic device and control electronics configured to control the photonic device. The photonic device comprises a plurality of photonic components arranged in a two-dimensional matrix array, and the control electronics are configured to control individually or in groups the photonic components of the plurality of photonic components. Each photonic component or each group of photonic components is configured, where appropriate conjointly with an optic, so as to emit and/or receive at least one optical wireless communication signal in a propagation direction that is discriminable relatively to a propagation direction of optical wireless communication signals emitted and/or received, respectively, by at least one other photonic component or by at least one other group of photonic components of the plurality of photonic components.
