Abstract: When light is off, a transparent appearance is obtained, while when the light is on, light is seen through a transparent spot. The present invention includes a light source portion and a reflective portion. The light source portion emits light. The light source portion is disposed at a position shifted with respect to an emitting direction of emitted light from the reflective portion. The reflective portion reflects the light from the light source portion and emits it in a predetermined direction. The reflective portion is constituted by a transparent member with a refractive index at least in a visible light area larger than 1. As a result, in the present invention, the transparent appearance is obtained when the light is off, while the light is seen through the transparent spot when the light is on.

Abstract: A lighting system enables a lighting pattern to be displayed on a vehicle when the vehicle is in motion. A lighting pattern may include lights that fluctuate (with respect to luminosity) or lights that stay, that is, are solid, at the same luminosity. The length of time that a light, such as an LED lamp, is powered on may vary. Similarly, the amount of time between two adjacent lights are powered off and powered on may also vary. As such, the lighting sequence is flexible and can be customized so that all lights are not on for the same length of time and the time between two lights being powered may vary. A vehicle front alert system allows for improved perception of speed of an approaching vehicle, human, or object.

Abstract: A method and a system for producing a luminescent 3D radar-module cover for a radiator grille of a motor vehicle. A three-dimensional structure including an optical conductor is produced from a light-dispersing first plastic material in separate method steps using a first injection mold. The three-dimensional structure is metallized and metal-coated. A subsequent separation of the gating takes place. A cover element is produced from a second plastic material using a second injection mold, which at least partially covers the metallized three-dimensional structure in a planar manner in a position of use. A contour of the three-dimensional structure is left free. The gating is subsequently severed. The three-dimensional structure is metallized together with the cover element disposed thereon and is embedded in a third plastic material with the aid of a third injection mold while molding a mount for a radar module and fastening points on the molded component.
