    Abstract: A device with at least two light sources operating in context with each other under electronic control of illumination angle and intensity in order to create a wide angle stereoscopic view of the area. The device uses multiple switched sources of light situated at an angle in reference to a light source positioned along the longitudinal axis of system. The device works by sequentially switching each individual light source on and off in selected patterns at a frequency equal to or higher than 30 Hz. The device covers a selectable illumination area at variable view angles from the focused forward beam from over 3 steradians in the Left, Right, Up or Down direction, or to more than 6 steradians in full-view mode, when an axially aligned center source is present. The device finds applications, in automotive, aircraft, watercraft, space vehicles, flashlights and other fields of human activities.
