Abstract: A parabolic reflector is utilized for a vehicle head lamp having a housing, lens, light emitting diodes and control circuits for the light emitting diodes. The parabolic reflector comprises a plurality of reflective panels in an upper array for the low beam and a lower array for the high beam. The upper array is formed by three rows of twelve panels in side-to-side configuration. The lower array is divide into two separate groups, with each group having a two outermost panels, two intermediate panels and two innermost panels. The reflective panels of the upper array and the lower array are so positioned with respect to the light emitting diodes as to form a desired luminous intensity distribution from the head lamp.
