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

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 light system a base that is configured to connect to a vehicle; a light layer that is movable into the base in a closed configuration and out of the base in an open configuration; and a cap located above the base and the light layer, the cap enclosing the light layer within the base when the light system is in the closed configuration.

Mobile 360&#xb0; light system and method of cleaning the mobile 360&#xb0; light system

Casing () for a windscreen wiper drive rod, in particular of a motor vehicle, said casing being configured to cover at least a portion of said drive rod and comprising means for fixing to said drive rod and/or to at least one element () linked to said drive rod, characterised in that it further comprises support and guiding means () which are configured to cooperate with at least one electric cable () and/or at least one fluid line () of said windscreen wiper.

Casing for a windscreen wiper drive rod

A windshield window wiping system, including a wiper blade in contact with a windshield window; a wiper motor operatively connected to the wiper blade, configured to perform a wiper blade stroke; a reservoir for a wash fluid; a first hood mounted nozzle, configured to project the wash fluid toward the windshield window; a wash pump, wherein the wash pump is hydraulically connected to the first hood mounted nozzle; and a first electronic circuit, configured to estimate a position of the wiper blade during the wiper blade stroke based on an input to the first electronic circuit and to synchronize the projection of the wash fluid toward the windshield window with the estimated position of the wiper blade. In other aspects, a method of wiping a windshield window and a non-transitory computer readable medium are provided.

Wash pump control based on predicted wiper arm position using hood mounted spray nozzles

A windshield window wiping system, including a wiper blade in contact with a windshield window; a wiper motor operatively connected to the wiper blade, configured to perform a wiper blade stroke; a reservoir for a wash fluid; a first plurality of holes on a first leading edge of the wiper blade, configured to project the wash fluid toward the windshield window; a wash pump, wherein the wash pump is hydraulically connected to the first plurality of holes; and a first electronic circuit, configured to estimate a position of the wiper blade during the wiper blade stroke based on an input to the first electronic circuit and to synchronize the projection of the wash fluid toward the windshield window with the estimated position of the wiper blade. In other aspects, a method of wiping a windshield window and a non-transitory computer readable medium are provided.
