Abstract: A vehicle winglet (e.g., sideview mirror, camera or radar assembly, etc.) is provided with sequential illumination of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). A light guide is connected to and covers the LEDs. The light guide is made of a translucent material and is configured to guide light illuminated by the LEDs and transfer the light out of the light guide. The light guide includes a plurality of light guide towers extending therefrom. Each light guide tower is aligned with a respective one of the LEDs. In some embodiments, a plurality of collimators are provided, with each collimator aligned with a respective one of the LEDs and with a respective one of the light guide towers to redirect the light illuminated from the respective LED into the respective light guide tower.

Abstract: A vehicle lamp system, may include a lamp housing arranged within a vehicle winglet; and an optical assembly arranged within an optical housing and configured to project an image on a surface exterior to the vehicle from the winglet, the optical assembly having the optical housing configured to receive at least one interchangeable film configured to produce the image, the optical housing defining a slot configured to receive the film.

Abstract: A vehicle ground illumination system may include a housing configured to maintain an image projector and a light projector and a controller in communication with the image projector and the light projector. The controller may be configured to instruct the image projector to project an image in an illumination area, and instruct the light projector to project a white light in the illumination area, wherein the white light is projected to at least partially surround the image projector.

Abstract: A vehicle illumination system for illuminating a path to a vehicle may include a light mechanism arranged on the vehicle, at least one antenna configured to detect a unique device of an approaching user; and at least one controller. The controller may be configured to determine a user location based on the detected unique device, predict the path based at least in part on the user location, and instruct the light mechanism to illuminate an area along the path.

Abstract: A mirror device for motor vehicles is provided comprising a main housing and a light guide associated with a light source and attached to the main housing. The light guide extends in at least one portion through the main housing defining at least one housing adapted for receiving the light source. The main housing may comprise a cover and a case; and a housing body may be fitted between the light guide and the cover. The light source housing may be formed at any portion of the length of the light guide.

Abstract: A light module for use with a vehicle includes a housing defining an internal volume and an outlet, a light source positioned within the internal volume and configured to emit light of a first color, a converter positioned between the light source and the outlet, and a lens coupled to the housing. The converter receives the light of the first color and is configured such that, after receiving the light of the first color, light of a second color different from the first color passes out of the converter. The converter is separated from the light source. The lens includes a first portion extending across the outlet and a second portion extending from the first portion toward the converter. The light of the second color passes through the second portion and the first portion and out of the light module.

Abstract: A side mirror assembly for a vehicle includes a housing defining an interior volume and a mirror aperture, primary and secondary mirrors coupled to the housing and extending across the mirror aperture, and a support coupled to the housing and at least one of the primary mirror and the secondary mirror. The primary mirror has a first outer surface, and the secondary mirror has a second outer surface. The primary mirror and the secondary mirror are reflective and provide different fields of view. The primary mirror and the secondary mirror are arranged such that the primary mirror is at least partially superimposed on the secondary mirror, thereby defining an overlapped area of the second outer surface. A visible reflective area of the first outer surface is a larger than a visible reflective area of the second outer surface.

Abstract: An outer housing with a cover having a PVD coating; a lens; and an illumination device such as LEDs, light guides, light emitting surfaces and/or blinkers. The lens has a first area internal to the cover, and a second, transparent area extending to one side of the outer housing. The cover has a first cover element external to the lens and of a nature such that the illumination device is visible from the exterior when it is on and not visible from the exterior when it is off. The cover has a substantially opaque second cover element having an overlapping portion between the first area of the lens and the first cover element.

Abstract: An exterior rear view mirror assembly for a motor vehicle has a reflecting element, a clamping plate, a first adhesive element fixing the reflective element to the clamping plate, and a watertight illumination module. The watertight illumination module has a printed circuit board arranged within the watertight illumination module at an angle of 1 to 90 degrees relative to the clamping plate, at least one light emitting diode arranged on the printed circuit board, an inner reflective surface having a reflectivity coefficient of at least 30% and at least partially exposed to the light emitted by the at least one light emitting diode, and an outer portion with at least one hole with a sealing element engaged therein.
