Abstract: A lighting assembly is provided with a housing defining a cavity that is aligned along a longitudinal axis. A light source is supported by the housing and aligned with the longitudinal axis. A lens is supported by the housing to collimate light from the light source. An image plate with a plurality of apertures formed through passes a portion of the collimated light as light segments. An exit lens includes a first series of optics arranged on a first plane spaced apart from the image plate at a first focal distance to focus the light segments at a first distance from the housing, and a second series of optics arranged on a second plane spaced apart from the image plate at a second focal distance to focus the light segments at a second distance from the housing. The second focal distance is greater than the first focal distance.

Abstract: A lighting assembly is provided with a housing defining a cavity with a rearward opening and a forward opening formed opposite the rearward opening along a longitudinal axis. A plurality of light sources is supported by the housing and disposed within the rearward opening. A first lens is supported by the housing with a plurality of optics each aligned with one of the plurality of light sources to receive light and collimate the received light within the housing, wherein the first lens is formed of glass. A second lens is disposed within the forward opening of the housing to receive the collimated light and generate an illumination pattern.
