Abstract

A vehicle includes individual light sources that are separated in space from neighboring light sources. Collimators can collimate light emitted from the light sources, and a first diffusing surface is configured to receive the collimated light and to diffuse the collimated light in a first direction transverse to a first propagation direction of the collimated light. A second diffusing surface is configured to receive the light diffused by the first diffusing surface and to diffuse the received light in a second direction transverse to a second propagation direction of the collimated light.
