Abstract
A homogenous light-emitting diode (LED) lamp for an automotive vehicle is provided that includes multiple LEDs configured as a LED array and a diffusion sheet. The diffusion sheet has a curvature aligned with the LED array for smoothing and bending light emitted by the LEDs for the purpose of creating a lighting appearance substantially lacking hotspots. An automotive vehicle lamp for producing homogenous light is provided. The vehicle lamp includes multiple LEDs each positioned a first distance apart from one another to form an array of LEDs, and a diffusion sheet positioned a second distance from the array of LEDs for smoothing light emitted from the array of LEDs. The first distance and the second distance are arranged for the purpose of providing a substantially homogenous light output from the vehicle lamp when viewed through the diffusion sheet.
