Merging Light, Electronics and Lamination into Automotive Lighting
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2014<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">A new method to package “inorganic” light emitting diode (LED) chips has been developed that creates a lamp that allows new design concepts for automotive lighting. The lamp is a flexible, very thin LED lamp that can be powered directly from a vehicle's 12 volt system.

SPIE Proceedings, 2006
Light emitting diodes (LED) are becoming more and more significant in interior and exterior automotive lighting. The long service life, energy and space savings, shock and vibration resistance and new styling potential are the main advantages of using LEDs in automotive applications. Today, most central high mounted stop lamps use LEDs.

Visible light positioning: Automotive use case
2010 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference, 2010The use of positioning sensors on automobiles is becoming increasingly common with the desire to facilitate utility and traffic safety by giving the driver information on the automobiles position relative to the surroundings. In this paper we introduce a positioning technique based upon automobile LED lighting — either taillights or headlights — that ...

Automotive Distributed Lighting: Regionally
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2000<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Very small PC lamps are used with localized waveguides to construct regional distributed lighting systems (DLS). This approach reduces the size, cost, and redesign of implementing DLS illumination. Wattage usage is decreased, and installation complexity is reduced.

Design and prototyping of a freeform light-guide for automotive lighting
Current Developments in Lens Design and Optical Engineering XIX, 2018We have designed a light-guide for lighting applications, including automotive headlamps. The light-guide is designed based on a free-form slab. Our intention has been to optimize the design for creating legal patterns. One of our objectives has been to investigate how the changes in the shape of the freeform light-guide affects the light pattern, and ...
