Abstract: An illumination apparatus for a motor vehicle comprises: a light source, an optical waveguide with an incident surface and a reflective region; and a hologram arranged on or in the optical waveguide. The illumination apparatus is configured such that light emitted by the light source enters the incident surface of the optical waveguide in the direction of the reflective region, is reflected by the reflective region inside the optical waveguide in the direction of the hologram and interacts with the hologram. The average distance between the light source and the incident surface is at least half as great as the average distance between the reflective region and the hologram.

Abstract: A lighting device is provided for a motor vehicle. It includes a flat waveguide that has an entry surface and at least one light emission surface. The length (L) of the waveguide is greater than 50 cm. It also includes a plurality of light sources. At least part of the light generated by the light sources enters the waveguide through the entry surface, at least part of the light entering through the entry surface exits the at least one light emission surface, and at least part of the light exiting the at least one light emission surface exits the lighting device. The lighting device also includes a device for positioning and/or retaining the waveguide. The device contains a receiver for a narrow surface of the waveguide extending along the length (L) of the waveguide.

Abstract: An illuminating device for vehicles is provided with a housing closed off by a transparent covering plate. A light source unit contains at least a first and a second light source. An optical unit contains a hologram element for generating a illuminated holographic figure are arranged. The optical unit has at least one shutter element for limiting an emission angle range (φ) of the light source, such that the optical unit has a first optical component allocated to the first light source and a second optical component allocated to the second light source by means of which light emitted by the light sources can be deflected in the direction of the hologram element. A transitional area between the optical components a screening element extends in such a way that scattered light emitted by the first light source that does not hit the allocated first optical component is prevented from hitting the adjacent second optical component and such that, vice versa, scattered light emitted from a second light source that does not hit the second optical component is prevented from hitting the first optical component.

Abstract: A display device for the interior of a vehicle comprises light sources, light guides, and holograms. The light guides are arranged next to one another and each has an entrance surface and a reflective area. Each light source emanates light that enters the entrance surface of an associated light. At least one of the holograms is arranged at or in each light guide. The light emanated by each light source enters the entrance surface of the associated light guide in a direction of the reflective area of the associated light guide, is reflected by the reflective area of the associated light guide in a direction of the hologram of the associated light guide, and interacts with the hologram of the associated light guide.

Abstract: Lighting device for a vehicle, comprising a lighting module having at least one light source and one luminous surface which is illuminated by the light source, from which light emanates during operation of the lighting device, as well as a liquid crystal display which is arranged at least partially in front of the luminous surface in such a way that, during operation of the lighting device, at least one portion of the light emerging from the luminous surface enters an entrance surface of the liquid crystal display and emerges from an exit surface of the liquid crystal display, wherein the lighting device is configured to control the liquid crystal display, in a targeted manner, in order to allow portions of the light impinging on the entrance surface to pass through the liquid crystal display and not to allow other portions of the light impinging on the entrance surface to pass through the liquid crystal display.

Abstract: A lighting device for a vehicle, having a plurality of light sources, which are arranged in an array, in particular in line-by-line and column-by-column fashion, and can be operated independently of each other at least in part, wherein the light sources emit light during operation; an exit face through which the light emanating from the light sources passes; and a plurality of extensive boundary elements, which extend at least partly in a region between the light sources and the exit face and serve to separate the light emanating from different light sources, wherein at least some, preferably all, of the extensive boundary elements have a reflector which at least partly reflects the light emanating from one of the light sources in the direction of the exit face.
