  • Publication number: 20170246983
    Abstract: A lighting device of a vehicle includes at least one lighting device for a road scene in front of the vehicle arranged to form a first light beam defined by a first lighting. A device for generating a second light beam defined by a second lighting is configured to superimpose the second beam on the first light beam. A sum of the first lighting and of the second lighting is greater than the first lighting, the second light beam forms driving assistance information.

  • Patent number: 9182104
    Abstract: A lighting module comprising an elliptical collector for reflecting in the direction of an optical element a beam originating from a light source. The module comprises a screen assembled along the path of the light beam so as to form a cutoff edge. In accordance with the invention, the light source, the elliptical collector and the screen are assembled on an active surface of a support, which additionally comprises a referencing wall. Means for pressing the screen against said active surface and for pushing the front face of the screen, which comprises the cutoff edge, against said referencing wall are provided.
