Abstract
A light guide is provided having an elongate body extending in a longitudinal direction having a light transmission portion with a forward light exit surface and a reflective track extending opposite the light exit surface. A plurality of reflective elements are formed along the reflective track and spaced apart in the longitudinal direction. Each reflective element has a center segment and a pair of edge segments each oriented at a spread angle from the center segment toward the light transmission portion, thereby increasing a spread of light output in a horizontal direction from the light transmission portion.
