摘要: A bank angle of a vehicle can be accurately calculated using yaw axis data and roll axis data, and based on the calculated bank angle, vehicle illumination optics can be controlled to maintain a pattern of distributed light from the illumination optics to be generally horizontal. The calculated bank angle may be zeroed when the yaw axis data equals zero. The improved pattern of distributed light from the illumination optics illuminates a more natural field of view for the vehicle driver during a bank.

摘要: A headlight system for a banking vehicle is provided. The headlight system includes a plurality of optical assemblies being arranged about an optical horizon and an optical vertical axis. Each of the plurality of optical assemblies includes an illumination source and an optical element. Each of the illumination sources is configured to direct light toward a corresponding one of the optical elements to produce an illumination region. The illumination regions combine to form an illumination pattern that includes at least one illumination region that is radial and is positioned relative an optical origin. The intersection between the optical horizon and the optical vertical axis defines the optical origin.

摘要: A lamp for a vehicle is provided that can include a housing, an axial symmetric lens coupled to the housing and defining an optical axis and a focal point, an image shifting lens positioned within the housing behind the axial symmetric lens relative to the optical axis, and a light source positioned within the housing. The light source can be positioned behind the image shifting lens. The light source can be configured to emit light along an optical path that extends, from the light source, through the image shifting lens, towards the axial symmetric lens above the optical axis, and through the axial symmetric lens to define a high beam illumination pattern.

摘要: A vehicular illumination system structured as an array of optical trains in each of which the element of a light-concentrating optical sub-system and the element of the projection optical sub-system are uniquely spatially mapped one into another to ensure that light from a given optical source of the employed arrays of optical sources necessarily interacts both with a dedicated, spatially-distinct light concentrator of the corresponding optical train and with a dedicated, spatially-distinct projection optical component while not interacting with either the light concentrator or the projection optical component of the neighboring optical train. Embodiments ensure freedom of change of the overall shape of the system while, in operation, forming light distribution in pre-determined illumination plane that is substantially devoid of visually-perceived color aberrations.
