Vehicle and touch pad are disclosed including perovskite features for illumination. An example vehicle includes a touch pad having a substrate, circuit elements disposed on the substrate, pairs of electrodes disposed on the substrate, and perovskite ink disposed on the substrate between each respective pair of electrodes, wherein the perovskite ink is configured to provide illumination of the circuit elements by passing current through the pairs of electrodes.

Perovskite illuminated vehicle control surfaces

A vehicle mirror assembly is provided herein. The vehicle mirror assembly includes a housing operable between a deployed position and a folded position. A lamp assembly is coupled to the housing and has a first light source configured to direct light rearwardly of the housing and a second light source configured to direct light forwardly of the housing. The housing is configured to move from the deployed position to the folded position when an object is detected.

Vehicle lamp assembly

This disclosure details vehicle puddle lamp assemblies and methods for illuminating the puddle lamp assemblies in a manner that provides a visual indication of a vehicle interior temperature. An exemplary vehicle puddle lamp assembly includes a control module configured to control the puddle lamp assembly to selectively project an illuminated pattern onto a ground surface adjacent to the puddle lamp assembly. The illuminated pattern provides the visual indication of the vehicle interior temperature.

Enhanced informational vehicle puddle lamp assemblies

A vehicle mirror assembly is provided herein. The mirror assembly includes a first light source disposed within a housing and is operably coupled with a first light output window disposed on an outboard portion of the housing. A door ajar sensor is disposed within a vehicle. Emitted light is emanated from the first light output window through a window of the vehicle when the door ajar sensor detects a vehicle door is in an open position.
