Abstract: An automotive lighting control system is provided. A light-emitting diode (LED) system of an at least partially autonomous vehicle can include a first group of LEDs including cyan and amber LEDs, a second group of LEDs including cyan and at least one of red or amber LEDs, a third group of LEDs including cyan LEDs, and a controller configured to receive a first control signal indicating whether the at least partially autonomous vehicle is in autonomous drive mode or manual drive mode and cause the cyan LEDs of the first, second, and third groups LEDs to provide perceived cyan light when and only when the autonomous vehicle is in the autonomous drive mode.

Abstract: The invention relates to a high-intensity discharge lamp for a vehicle-light projector system, comprising a base (4) that carries an outer envelope (1) in which a burner (2) is arranged, the burner (2) comprising a discharge chamber (21) into which two electrodes (22, 23) project, the discharge chamber (21) being filled at least with an inert gas, a mixture of metal halides and a salt reservoir, the so-called “salt lake” (25). The outer envelope (1) has a coating (31) in strip form that screens off light and that extends, on the side of the outer envelope (1) adjacent the salt lake (25), for at least 40% of the length of the outer envelope (1) and whose width covers an angle of between 90° and 180° around the outer envelope (1). The invention also relates to a projector system for motor vehicle headlamps comprising at least one high-intensity discharge lamp of this kind.

Abstract: The invention relates to a side-emitting bulb, comprising a light source (16) and at least one glass tube (20) which surrounds the light source, wherein the bulb has means for deflecting the emitted light in lateral directions. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle headlight comprising a reflector and a side-emitting bulb arranged in the reflector.
