Further, some light sources are mounted on a lift gate, and may be visible to other drivers and/or pedestrians behind the vehicle regardless of whether the lift gate is in an open or closed position.

Abstract: Vehicle fenders for vehicles include a side turn indicator. A vehicle fender may include a recess portion, and the side turn indicator, including a light source, may be disposed in the recessed portion. The vehicle fender may hide, or otherwise obscure, the light source when the side turn indicator in an inactive mode (e.g., not illuminated). However, when the light source is in an active mode (e.g., the side turn indicator is illuminated), light from the light source is visible through any structure of the side turn indicator and the side turn indicator is visible to present an indication to which the vehicle may turn. Further, the side turn indicator, when illuminated, is generally no longer hidden/obscured by the vehicle fender.

Abstract: An integrated assembly of turn signal light source and a side marker light source is implemented for a vehicle. The assembly may be one of several assemblies for the vehicle. Multiple assemblies may be carried by bumper (e.g., front bumper and rear bumper) of the vehicle. For example, the assembly may be located at each of a front driver's side corner and a passenger's side corner, with each assembly positioned in the front bumper. Additionally, the assembly may be located at each of a rear driver's side corner and a passenger's rear corner, with each assembly positioned in the rear bumper.

Abstract: An apparatus can include a light fixture. The light fixture can be disposed between a first light of a vehicle and a second light of the vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and method described herein are directed a digital micromirror device high resolution lamp system. The system can include an optical module. The optical module can be configured to dispose inside a headlamp. The optical module can include an array of micromirrors. The system can include one or more processors coupled with memory. The one or more processors can be configured to provide a beam of light. The beam of light can include an origin. The one or more processors can be configured to control a zone within the beam of light, using the array of micromirrors. The zone can be configured to project a graphic within the beam of light. The zone can include at least a 400:1 contrast ratio within at least a 20 degree by 10-degree field of view from the origin.

Abstract: A head lamp includes projector modules held by a carrier that is designed to move. The carrier may include a bezel with openings for the projector modules. The openings may receive a lens that covers a projector module. The head lamp may include an additional projector module that surrounds, or at least partially surrounds, the bezel and the aforementioned projector modules. The movement of the carrier and the bezel cause the lenses to move, and the movement of the lenses causes articulation of the respective beams of the projector modules.

Abstract: Side mirrors for vehicles may include a side turn indicator and in some cases an image sensor and a side turn indicator. Side mirrors may further include a bezel coupled with a housing, with the bezel surrounding a mirror. The bezel may include one or more openings, with the opening(s) having a lens. The side turn indicator may include a light source aligned with each respective lens. The bezel may hide, or otherwise obscure, the light source when unilluminated. However, when the light source is illuminated, light from the respective light sources passes through the bezel (via the lenses and the openings) and the turn signal indicator is visible to present an indication to which the vehicle may turn.

Abstract: Particular embodiments may provide a control system for a vehicle, which may include and memory coupled to the processors. The memory may include instructions executable by the processor.

The signals may be received by sensors of the vehicle. The processors may be further operable when executing instructions to identify a lighting mode for illuminating an area associated with a device location. The processors may be further operable when executing instructions to determine illumination fields and lighting properties based on the lighting mode and the device location. The processors may be further operable when executing instructions to control operation of lights of the vehicle in accordance with the illumination fields and the lighting properties.

Abstract: A working machine includes a steer column; and a seat that rotates a rotation path between a first position and a second position. The steer column is movable between a first position, where the steer column is operable from the seat when the seat is in the first seat position, and a second position, where there is clearance between the steer column and the seat rotation path. A seat latch arrangement retains the seat in said first seat position; and a latch control mechanism releases the seat latch arrangement. The latch control mechanism prevents release of the seat latch arrangement when the steer column is in the first position. The actuator assembly actuates the latch control mechanism, wherein the actuator assembly is operated by movement of the steer column between the first position and the second position.
