Abstract: A vehicle lighting system is provided herein. The vehicle lighting system includes an electronic adaptive drive beam system having a light source, a projection lens, and a digital micromirror device attached to a substrate. The lighting system further includes a camera. A controller is configured to determine a target parking space and initiate the electronic adaptive drive beam to continually outline the boundary thereof.

Abstract: A vehicular lighting assembly is provided that includes a chamber defined by isotropically luminant back and side surfaces, a depth, and a front surface having a lens aperture. The lighting assembly also includes LED sources on the back surface. In addition, each source has a beam angle?a light exit angle, and is spaced from the other sources?the depth divided by a predetermined factor between approximately 1.0 and 2.5. In certain aspects, the front surface also includes a diffuser. In other aspects, each source is spaced from the other sources?the depth divided by a predetermined factor of approximately 2.5 or less.

Abstract: A signal assembly is provided that includes a chamber defined by isotropically luminant back and side surfaces, and a front surface having a lens and a diffuser. The signal assembly also includes LED light sources having a beam angle ?70° coupled to the back surface. The back and front surfaces are separated by a depth, and each source is located at a spacing from the other sources ?the depth divided by a predetermined factor. The predetermined factor may be set to approximately 2.5 or 2.0 when the divergence angle of the diffuser is ?20° or ?30°, respectively. The signal assembly and its components can be configured to operate as a vehicular signal lamp.
