Abstract
A lighting device for a motor vehicle is provided, for example a head lamp or a tail lamp. The lighting device includes an array of light sources, a lens assembly having a collimator lens, an inner lens, and an outer lens, and a housing to maintain the lens assembly in fixed relation relative to the array of light sources. The collimator lens includes a central geometry to manage high intensity light from directly above the LEDs and a lateral geometry to manage low intensity light that is offset from the LEDs, such that the light output from the LEDs exits the lens assembly with a homogeneous light distribution. The lighting device is suitable for vehicle applications, including internal lighting applications and external vehicle lighting applications. The lighting device can be manufactured by extrusion, making it well suited for low cost applications, such as interior ambient lighting.
