  • Vehicle lighting assembly and method for achieving yellow colored turn signals
    Patent number: 9791124
    Abstract: A vehicle lighting assembly includes a housing, a circuit board, and a lens. The circuit board is disposed within the housing and includes a turn signal light source configured to emit yellow-green colored light at a peak intensity in a range of about 500 nm to about 570 nm. The lens is coupled to the housing. The lens is a single-color optical filter configured to shift the yellow-green colored light emitted from the turn signal light source to a range of about 588 nm to about 592 nm.

  • Systems and methods for vehicle lighting
    Patent number: 9764682
    Abstract: A vehicle lighting system includes a first LED, a second LED, a mode switch controller, and an electronic switch. The first LED is electrically connected in series with the second LED. The mode switch controller is electrically connected to each of the first and second LEDs. The electronic switch is electrically connected to the mode switch controller between the first and second LEDs. The electronic switch is configured to short circuit the second LED in a primary mode, and to remove the short circuit in a secondary mode. The mode switch controller is configured to control the electronic switch to short circuit the second LED in the first mode, receive an input indicative of the secondary mode from a vehicle controller, and in response, control the electronic switch to remove the short circuit.
